Timothée Chalamet surprised fans with a bold new haircut as he promoted his upcoming project. The actor’s character demanded a departure from his usual curly locks, prompting him to sport a buzz cut while filming in NYC. The reveal of his drastic change came during a livestream for his film “Marty Supreme,” where he appeared in a clear box surrounded by orange ping pong balls, unveiling his new look by removing a large orange ping pong ball from his head.
Fans took to social media, expressing mixed reactions to his new haircut. Some likened his appearance to that of a musician ready to drop an emotional techno album, while others humorously suggested he looked like he was joining the Marine Corps or aging rapidly. The haircut debut coincided with Chalamet attending the premiere of “Marty Supreme” at the New York Film Festival alongside his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner. The film received positive reviews from attendees, with Chalamet describing it as a tribute to New York.
“Marty Supreme,” set in the 1950s, narrates the journey of a young aspiring table tennis player named Marty Mauser, inspired by the real-life story of American table tennis champion Marty Reisman. Although Chalamet announced a Christmas Day release for the film, it will hit theaters in the US and Canada on that date, while UK viewers can expect it on January 1, 2026. The star-studded cast includes Gwyneth Paltrow, Tyler, the Creator, Odessa A’zion, Fran Drescher, and Abel Ferrara.
