During the filming of the movie Marty Supreme, Timothée Chalamet on set faced a challenging situation trying to provoke genuine anger from a background actor. The incident took place during a motel scene, where Chalamet’s character, Marty Mauser, becomes furious after an accident in his hotel room, and the actor sought authentic emotional reactions for the scene.
While filming in New York City, Chalamet described his efforts to stir up real emotion, revealing the difficulties of eliciting a natural response from non-actors involved in the production. The intense exchange led to an unexpected confrontation, which was later eased when the actor revealed his genuine history, culminating in a memorable moment on set.
Challenges Provoking Real Anger on Set
Timothée Chalamet took to a Q&A event held on January 14 at the DGA Theater alongside Robert Downey Jr. to share the story. He explained how he worked alongside a background actor who struggled to deliver the required anger after multiple takes. Chalamet mentioned,
“I won’t say who, but in that motel sequence, there are a lot of non-actors that I find it really thrilling to work with,”
describing his process with these background performers.
He admitted to pushing the actor intensively:
“I’m really getting in the guy’s face and I’m really trying to get him angry with me,”
but after repeated attempts, the frustration grew as the anger remained elusive. When he communicated his concerns to the film’s director, Josh Safdie, he expressed,
“not getting angry with me, he’s not getting angry with me.”
The persistence paid off when an unexpected revelation changed the dynamic on set.
The Background Actor’s Revealing Response
On a subsequent take, the background actor broke character, sharing a striking personal story that added depth to the scene. Chalamet recalled the moment:
“I did another take, and then the guy said, ‘I was just in jail for 30 years. You really don’t want to f–k with me. You don’t want to see me angry,’”
demonstrating a sudden intensity that Chalamet found both shocking and compelling. He confided to Safdie,
“Holy s–t, who do you have me opposite, man?”
This admission illuminated the genuine emotion beneath the surface, contributing authenticity to the scene where Marty Mauser confronts an unexpected mishap: falling through the floor of his hotel room during a bath, landing on a dog and its gangster owner’s arm. This accident triggered Mauser’s fury, and the tension was mirrored in the actor’s real-life anger, benefiting the film’s dramatic impact.
Additional Notable Cameos in Marty Supreme
The film also featured a surprise cameo by Robert Pattinson. Director Josh Safdie revealed in an interview with the British Film Institute on January 13 that Pattinson, who previously worked with Safdie on the film Good Time, lent his voice to a British Open semifinals scene as both commentator and umpire.
Sharing the backstory, Safdie reflected,
“No one knows this, but that voice—the commentator, the umpire—is Pattinson,”
calling it a “little easter egg” for fans. He added with humor,
“He came and watched some stuff and I was like, ‘I don’t know any British people,’ so he’s the umpire.”
This added a layer of intrigue and insider detail for viewers to discover.
