Timothee Chalamet has officially begun filming his new movie! The 28-year-old Oscar-nominated stepped out to film a few scenes for his upcoming movie Marty Supreme on the streets of New York City on Monday (Sept. 30). For his time on set, Timothee showed off his shorter hair cut and sported a tiny mustache while wearing a navy vest, light green shirt, brown pants, and glasses. While plot details are being kept mum, the movie is said to be loosely inspired by the life of ping pong player Marty Reisman, and will be a fictionalized film. For those that don’t know, Marty Reisman was known as the “Wizard of Table Tennis,” and he was a table tennis champion who started his career in Manhattan as a hustler, playing for bets and prize money. He won 22 major ping pong titles from 1946 to 2007 and won five bronze medals at the World Table Tennis Championships. At 67, Marty competed in the United States National Hardbat Championship and became the oldest player to win an open national competition in a ract sport. He died in December 2012 at the age of 82. Josh Safdie is set to direct the feature, reuniting with A24, from a script he wrote with Ronald Bronstein. An Oscar-winning actress will also be starring in the movie!
