Timothée Chalamet faced a $79 fine after biking to his film premiere in London, calling the situation “horrible” yet humorous.

He ended up getting a £65 fine, which is about $79. Can you believe that? He mentioned on a French talk show that there was a traffic jam, and he wasn’t even allowed to park there. Talk about a bummer!
Timothée joked about it, saying it was kind of an advertisement for the bike company. He even tried to defend his eco-friendly choice, which got some laughs from the audience.
The actor made quite the entrance, riding onto the red carpet and going viral for it. Lime bikes are pretty popular, available in tons of cities worldwide, so he was just trying to be green.
In “A Complete Unknown,” he plays a young Bob Dylan, and he’s got some big names alongside him, like Monica Barbaro and Elle Fanning. He’s been working hard for this role, even earning a Golden Globe nomination for it.
Timothée shared how he prepared for the role, saying he spent five years getting ready to play Dylan. He really wanted to capture the essence of the legendary musician, and it sounds like he put his heart into it.
He reflected on his own journey in the industry, comparing it to Dylan’s early struggles. It’s cool to see how he relates to the character he’s portraying.
