With this morning’s Oscar announcement, 29-year-old Timothée Chalamet became the youngest actor receive two Best Actor Oscar nominations since James Dean. The second promo for the newly-nominated star’s Saturday Night Live hosting gig plays off the day’s news.
The A Complete Unknown star appears with Sarah Sherman in the bit. The SNL cast member congratulates the actor on his Oscar nomination before asking him, “Did you know I have an Oscar?”
Chalamet admits he wasn’t even aware Sherman had been in a movie.
That’s when things get weird.
Watch below.
Chalamet is also serving as musical guest and is likely to perform at least a Dylan song or two, given his singing for the role in A Complete Unknown.
In the first promo, released Wednesday, Chalamet plays off the recent craze for Chalamet look-a-like contests by recruiting some of the kinda-sorta lookalikes to help with his duties. One lucky faux-Timmy gets to appear on the Tonight Show, much to the apparent concern of host Jimmy Fallon. In the bit, Chalamet watches on a monitor, telling his crew, “He’s good. He’s really good. Yeah, you guys should learn from him.”
SNL airs Saturday at 11:30pm ET/8:30pm PT on NBC and streams live on Peacock.
