Timothée Chalamet has already stolen many hearts with his acting skills, which many agree are hard to find these days. As his portfolio is expanding with various projects, his personal life is also in full bloom. In 2023, he sparked a romantic connection with beauty mogul Kylie Jenner. Since then, the couple has been enjoying their relationship, keeping it low-key.
However, a recent report hints at his number one priority, which could affect his bond with the latter. This is particularly due to his seeming obsession with his idol – Leonardo DiCaprio.
Timothée Chalamet Reportedly Wants to Surpass Leonardo DiCaprio
Timothée Chalametand Leonardo DiCaprio have quite a similar success pathway in the Hollywood industry. Both the actors got their breakout during their youth while working along with A-listers.
The former got his breakthrough as Tom Cooper, the son of Matthew McConaughey’s lead character inInterstellar.Whereas,the latter gained initial recognition by playing Arnie Grape, Johnny Depp’s on-screen brother, who was the lead inWhat’s Eating Gilbert Grape.
While their success story has a major coincidence, Chalamet is secretly obsessed with the renowned A-lister, as per a source close to him, according toLife & Style.They shared,
Timmy is open about his admiration for Leo and even about the times he has directly sought Leo’s advice, but there’s definitely a double-edged sword to this kind of obsession he has to be aware of.
As the duo got their breakthrough, both landed leading roles, at their time, with Chalemet gettingCall Me by Your Name. The project became a significant hit, earning him an Oscar nod for the same. Since then, he continued to star in several projects, cementing his name among the top-listers in the filmmaking industry.
The insider continued,
But this is what Timmy wants, and it’s why he has carefully studied Leo since he was a teenager and why he made a point of paying his respects to Leo when he became a full-blown leading man in the last couple of years.
As per the source, theWonkastar is seemingly prioritizing his work, aiming to surpass his role model aka DiCaprio. This would surely be a great journey, but the source further mentioned that it could affect his blossoming life with Kylie Jenner.
Timothée Chalamet’s Priority Could Affect His Bond With Kylie Jenner
Chalamet’s admiration for DiCaprio is well-documented, with the actor often citing that the latter’s advice has had a huge impact on his life. As he appears to be on the path to surpass his idol, it could have some unintended consequences in his personal life, particularly with Kylie Jenner.
Just like theTitanicactor, he, too, is quite picky about the project he works on. The insider told the outlet,
Leo has devoted his entire adult life to being a certain kind of movie star, carefully picking projects and cultivating a global fan base.
Despite his professional success, DiCaprio’s personal life has often been deemed elusive due to the lack of long-term relationships.
The insider spilled,
It can be a very lonely life at the top and it’s obviously kept Leo from starting a family of his own or even having much of a personal life outside of his lavish vacations and his environmental work.
They continued,
“As rosy as things have been between Timmy and Kylie Jenner, she is best positioned to see where Timmy’s priorities are.”
The source argued that the former could also face those circumstances, had he kept going forward on that path. However, it is betweenthe coupleto respect and support each other’s decisions, while finding a perfect balance between their professional and personal life.
