Is Timothee Chalamet avoiding Kylie Jenner's family? The source reveals THIS is the reason
Timothee Chalamet , the 'Dune' actor, has been going on enchanting dates and frolicking around the town with his belle, Kylie Jenner . However, the 29-year-old has kept his distance from the socialite family, the Kardashians, to the extent that it's infuriating them. Timothee Chalamet is not interested in the Kardashians... According to Radar online, the sources claim that Kylie's mother and momager, Kris Jenner , and her sisters, Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian, have been desperate to spend time with the critically acclaimed actor. They have even extended their invites to fancy weekends away from home, dinner parties, and more, but Timothee keeps one arm's length away from them. While he is grateful and appreciative towards the Kardashian family's efforts to know him, the source expressed that he is wise enough to smell the ulterior motives of using his Hollywood name and connections for networking purposes. Kendall Jenner is an exception... Chalamet doesn't cut every call; he has been spending some time with the family, but he rarely is there for an hour, and when he has a reason to bail out, he does. The only exception is Kendall Jenner, the supermodel who is closer to the couple's age, and the trio have been spotted hanging around town. 'Timmy's seen the likes of Caitlyn Jenner, Kanye West , Lamar Odom, and so many other dudes who've been ruined once Kris got her claws into them. He'll be damned if that's his path,' the source said. Timothee Chalamet had been warned... Previously, the reports of Timothee's friends and family warning him about the Kardashian family floated around, citing that dating the reality star could end up affecting his acting career. "But Timmy's got a very smart head on his shoulders and he's made this decision for himself," the insider said. Chalamet has been getting a lot of attention from the netizens and paparazzi for dating the beauty mogul, but he has no interest in keeping up with the Kardashians whatsoever.

American Oscar-nominated actor ‘lined up as James Bond' as new 007 director is announced, say bookies
A TOP US actor could be announced as the new James Bond according to the latest odds from the bookies. The star has seen his odds shortened since the announcement that Denis Villeneuve has been hand-picked to direct the next movie. 4 4 4 Hollywood hot property Timothee Chalamet has seen his likelihood of becoming 007 increase thanks to his previous collaborations with the acclaimed director. The star, who has twice been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor, worked with Denis on both Dune and Dune: Part Two - with both flicks going on to become box office hits. It has sparked speculation that their work together in the past could mean that he is a shoe-in to secure the role from Daniel Craig. According to new odds from Ladbrokes, Timothee has seen his odds rise to a cool 16/1. The boyfriend of Kylie Jenner hasn't seen himself associated with the role until the confirmation of Denis as director. At present, Aaron Taylor-Johnson remains as the frontrunner with odds of 11/8. Cal Gildart of Ladbrokes said of the latest development: 'As one of the biggest actors on the planet, he's always been mentioned in the running, but Timothee Chalamet's never been seen as a serious Bond candidate. 'However, couple his profile with his successful collaborations with director Denis Villeneuve, and the odds suggest we could soon have an American Bond.' Earlier today, 57-year-old Denis was revealed to have been appointed the director of the 26th James Bond flick by Amazon MGM. The chuffed Canadian film-maker told how some of his "earliest movie-going memories" were linked to the James Bond movie franchise.

"I intend to honour the tradition and open the path for many new missions to come. "This is a massive responsibility, but also, incredibly exciting for me and a huge honour.

The Winner of the Pedro Pascal Lookalike Contest Works on the Daily Show
It all started with a silly Timothee Chalamet Lookalike contest back in 2024, and since then there have been several other attempts at celebrity lookalike competitions throughout the year. The latest one making headlines is a Pedro Pascal lookalike contest, and what's funny is, the winner, George Gountas, actually works on The Daily Show, and he was brought in to actually talk about his experience on air. Check this out: What's funny is that, people were supposed to sign up to enter the contest, but Gountas was so confident that he would win and he just walked up to the event and everyone immediately thought that he would land on top. Though people aren't really expecting things to blow up for Gountas after he won the contest, he is using his few seconds of fame to call out to the actual Pedro Pascal; apparently, Gountas' wife said that she would only be okay with all the attention her husband is getting if she managed to meet the actual Pascal. We don't know if that will eventually happen, but with the popularity of The Daily Show and Pascal currently doing press for Fantastic Four , having him meet up with Gountas and his wife would probably be a quick payday for the press if they managed to get it together. Watch out for The Daily Show weeknights on Comedy Central. Pedro Pascal stars in Fantastic Four: First Steps which comes to cinemas on July 25.

Jeremy Allen White sings as Bruce Springsteen in Deliver Me From Nowhere trailer
Bruce Springsteen fans have been given their first glimpse of Jeremy Allen White's portrayal of The Boss, in the trailer for new biopic Deliver Me From film follows Springsteen as he records his sixth album, the stark and stripped-down Nebraska, testing the patience of a record label who want a follow-up to his 1980 pop hit Hungry who has won three Emmys for his lead performance in The Bear, is seen playing harmonica and singing Nebraska's title track, as well as Springsteen's breakthrough hit Born To film comes after another legendary US singer-songwriter got the biopic treatment, with Timothee Chalamet receiving an Oscar nomination for playing Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown. To play Springsteen, White studied hundreds of archive videos to capture the singer's characteristic New Jersey rasp and athletic stage moves."There's just so much footage," he told GQ magazine last year. "It's really great to go down a YouTube rabbit hole and find him at all these different periods in his life and be able to listen to his speaking voice as well as his singing voice. It's been really fun preparing."Springsteen, a regular visitor to the film set, praised White's performance, calling him "a terrific actor" who sings "very well"."He's got an interpretation of me that I think the fans will deeply recognise and he's just done a great job, so I've had a lot of fun," said the star. Fan reaction to the trailer has been cautiously optimistic."I was expecting to hate the look of this, but I got quite emotional watching the trailer," said one comment under the trailer on YouTube. White "doesn't look like The Boss as much as I was expecting," added another, "but that last shot on stage is what sold me!""I wasn't sure at first, but I do see a little Bruce in Jeremy Allen White," commented a user on Reddit. "Not like total dopplegangers by any means, but there's a bit of a likeness.""It looks like a well-made film," added another. "I'm just not convinced, based on the trailer, that I'm watching a film about Bruce." Why Nebraska? White is 33 years old - about the same age Springsteen was when he recorded Nebraska, a downbeat series of character studies that were recorded acoustically in his home bedroom in Colts Neck, New contrast to the maximalism of his previous albums was compared to Bob Dylan going electric, only in the record in the New York Times in 1982, critic Robert Palmer wrote: "It's been a long time since a mainstream rock star made an album that asks such tough questions and refuses to settle for easy answers – let alone an album suggesting that perhaps there are no answers." The trailer shows Springsteen laying down some of those songs, determinedly following his muse at the expense of commercial success."This is not about the charts," says Jeremy Strong, playing Springsteen's manager Jon Landau in the trailer. "This is about Bruce Springsteen."At one point, director Scott Cooper recreates the album's famously bleak artwork - a 1975 photograph of a menacing sky, viewed through the windshield of a who helped Jeff Bridges win an Oscar with his 2009 biopic Crazy Heart, previously said he aimed to have the film "capture the same spirit" that Springsteen delivered on Nebraska and share his story with "authenticity and hope".Like the album, the trailer's atmosphere is brooding and portentous. Several shots see Springsteen isolated, writing alone on the floor of his bedroom as he wrestles with his burgeoning stardom."I'm trying to find something real in all the noise," he says in one of the few clips of trailer shifts tone to end with Springsteen on stage with the E Street Band, drenched in sweat and jumping into the air, suggesting more dynamic scenes will bookend the film. Bruce's emotional message to Stephen Graham Deliver Me From Nowhere also stars British actor Stephen Graham - fresh from the success of his Netflix series Adolescence - as Springsteen's father, recently revealed he had received an emotional text from the singer regarding his role in the movie."He's a working-class hero," the actor said. "He's an icon to thousands, to millions. And his text just said, 'Thank you so much. You know, my father passed away a while ago and I felt like I saw him today and thank you for giving me that memory.' "I was crying reading the text, do you know what I mean? Oh mate, it was beautiful. You couldn't ask for anything more, you know, to share that with someone was gorgeous. He's a lovely man."Odessa Young will play the musician's love interest Faye, and Paul Walter Hauser will play guitar tech Mike Batlan. The film is due for release in October, putting it in contention for next year's was originally due to face competition from the long-awaited Michael Jackson biopic - but that project has been pushed back to next year, with producers scheduling extensive reshoots this movies follow last year's Dylan biopic, which made $140m (£104m) at the box office and earned eight Oscar nominations.
