Timothee Chalamet has taken a swipe at opera and ballet.
In a recent interview with Matthew McConaughey for Variety and CNN, Chalamet said that he wanted to be in an art form that people cared about.
He said, “I don’t want to be working in ballet or opera where it’s like, ‘Hey, keep this thing alive, even though no one cares about this anymore.'” He then added, “all respect to the ballet and opera people out there. I just lost 14 cents in viewership.”
The conversation that McConaughey and Chalamet were having had to do with the survival of movie theaters and the advent of new streaming models.
Chalamet is currently campaigning for an Oscar for Best Actor for his acclaimed role in “Marty Supreme.” He is also currently one of the most successful actors in Hollywood with such recent films as “Marty Supreme,” “Dune Part One and Two,” “Wonka,” and “Little Women” turning into box office hits.
