Timothée Chalamet Has Never Seen ‘Girls’ 

We’re less than two months out from the Christmas Day premiere of Timothée Chalamet’s latest Oscar attempt, Marty Spears. The film is based on the life of actual table-tennis champion, Marty Mauser, whom I imagine I’ll learn more about after (maybe) watching this movie. But for now, all I really know about this film is that Gwyneth Paltrow had a lot of sex scenes with Chalamet and they absolutely didn’t use an intimacy coordinator because, according to Paltrow, she’s from “the era where you get naked.” So cool!

Timmy’s new Vogue cover story didn’t reveal too much either. The writer says they talked about inimicay coordinators, but didn’t reveal what Chalamet said, which is lame. He also didn’t say anything about Kylie Jenner (“I just don’t have anything to say”), which is fair. He does want kids, though, or, at least, “they could be on the radar.” But apparently, he’s currently “so fucking locked in now,” so I guess, good for him. He also said he’s been on a break from therapy, with his therapist’s blessing, who told him, “Hey, when you’re flying, you got to fly. That’s the whole point.” This is something I’ll be thinking about for the rest of the day.

A few things we did learn are that Chalamet was rejected from Harvard and Yale, and also, he’s never seen Girls—much to the dismay of his sister, Pauline Chalamet, who starred in her own HBO series.

But Chalamet “devoured” Lena Dunham’s Netflix series Too Much, and it almost sounds like he’s refusing to watch Girls just to spite his sister. I don’t have siblings, so if this sounds like a sibling thing, let me know in the comments. “She’s been all over me,” Chalamet says. “She’s like, ‘You can’t love Too Much without having seen Girls. Just watch the pilot!’ ” Honestly, though, I agree with her. If you’re already watching, you got to watch…or whatever his former therapist said.
