Timothée Chalamet Firmly Rejects TV Return, Committed to Film Stardom

As of November 2025, acclaimed actor Timothée Chalamet has made it clear that he has no plans to return to television, despite the growing trend of high-profile actors taking on roles in popular TV series. Chalamet, who rose to fame with his Oscar-nominated performance in 2017's Call Me by Your Name, has since focused exclusively on film projects.

The 29-year-old actor's last television credit was in 2012, when he had a recurring role in the Showtime series Homeland. Since then, Chalamet has firmly committed himself to the big screen, starring in critically acclaimed films such as Dune, Little Women, and Bones and All.

While Chalamet's decision to avoid television may surprise some, the actor has expressed his disappointment over a recent Oscar loss, where he was nominated for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in the biopic A Complete Unknown. Despite the setback, Chalamet remains determined to continue pursuing his acting dreams on the silver screen, stating, "People can call me a try-hard, and they can say whatever the fuck, but I'm the one actually doing it here."

Chalamet's next project, Marty Supreme, is expected to further cement his status as a leading man in Hollywood, as he takes on the role of a tennis star inspired by real-life player Marty Reisman. With his unwavering focus on film and his proven ability to captivate audiences, Timothée Chalamet is poised to solidify his place as one of the most sought-after actors of his generation.
