Recently, Oscar-nominated actor and Marty Supreme star Timothée Chalamet linked up with Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James, and they were all smiles.
Marty Supreme and A24's social media accounts posted pictures of their recent meeting. The first picture, which was taken in black and white, shows Chalamet pointing at the camera. The second photo was in color, and their grins were wide.
Chalamet was interviewed for James' Mind the Game podcast. The interview appears to have taken place following a screening of the film.
In Marty Supreme, Chalamet plays Marty Mauser, a talented but cocky ping-pong player. Gwyneth Paltrow, Odessa A'zion, and Kevin O'Leary (aka Mr. Wonderful) also star in it.
Marty Supreme has been a hit for A24. It has grossed over $161 million worldwide at the box office. This makes it the highest-grossing film in A24 history.
