A Complete Unknown will be set in the influential New York music scene of the early ’60s and chronicle Bob Dylan’s meteoric rise as a folk singer. After becoming a worldwide sensation, Dylan took the world by storm again with his controversial decision to embrace electric instruments during his groundbreaking performance at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965.

The controversy surrounding Dylan’s creative shift was chronicled in Elijah Wald’s book Dylan Goes Electric!, which served as inspiration for this film. Jay Cocks adapted it for the big screen alongside co-writer and director James Mangold (Walk the Line, Ford v Ferrari).

Chalamet leads the cast as Bob Dylan, and he’ll be joined by Edward Norton as the folk singer Pete Seeger, Elle Fanning as Dylan’s girlfriend Sylvie Russo, Monica Barbaro as his collaborator Joan Baez, Boyd Holbrook as the legendary singer Johnny Cash, Dan Fogler as Dylan’s manager Albert Grossman, and Scoot McNairy as the folk composer Woody Guthrie.

A Complete Unknown will be released in the theatres by Searchlight Pictures at an unspecified date this December.

Dune: Part Two hit the theatres on March 1, after its release date was pushed in the face of labor disputes in Hollywood last year. With $81.5 million grossed domestically and an additional $97 million in other territories, it topped the box office with a massive $178.5 million worldwide opening.

Warner Bros. president of domestic distribution Jeff Goldstein, described Dune: Part Two as a cultural moment and praised it for managing to capture the marketplace all around the globe.

“Audiences are responding to the combination of Denis Villeneuve’s ability to tell a story in an extraordinary way and the extraordinary cast. This is a moment for Timothée Chalamet,” Goldstein told Variety.

Dune: Part Two is a huge hit on premium format screens, such as IMAX, and  Villeneuve’s decision to film it with IMAX cameras certainly paid off. IMAX screenings accounted for $18.5 million of domestic ticket sales, representing 23% of the market share, and the company’s CEO Rich Gelfond said “The only reason it wasn’t higher is we ran out of seats,” adding they’ve been sold out for weeks in advance.

The yet-to-be-titled feature about the folk icon hails from Ford v Ferrari filmmaker James Mangold. 

Per Entertainment Weekly, the film is set in 1965 and will follow the Dylan “as he made his controversial shift to rock and roll and the electric guitar.”

The pic about Dylan won’t be the first time Mangold makes a movie about a musical icon. He co-wrote and directed the Johnny Cash biopic Walk The Line, which earned its leads, Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon an Oscar nomination and an Oscar win respectively. 

Chalamet most recently starred in Greta Gerwig’s Little Women adaptation as Laurie. He has a big year ahead starring in Denis Villeneuve’s Dune adaptation and the new Wes Anderson film The French Dispatch.
