Timothee Chalamet currently stars in the #1 movie worldwide, “Wonka.” He has “Dune: Part Two” coming up in March and is supposed to be shooting James Mangold’s Bob Dylan biopic (“A Complete Unknown”) in early Spring. He’s now confirmed a second project that he’s planning to shoot next year. Although he remains secretive about it, he’s saying it’s a Ping-Pong movie. Correct me if I’m wrong, but weren’t the Safdies rumored to direct a Ping Pong movie starring Chalamet? Those rumors quickly got squashed. I’ll be curious to find out who’s the director attached to this one.
Edward Berger seems to have settled on what comes next. His Lance Armstrong biopic, starring Austin Butler, is now holding casting calls, with production eyed for January.
