Timothee Chalamet, who is transforming into Bob Dylan for the new biopic A Complete Unknown, has caught fans’ attention for an unusual reason.
The film focuses on the singer and songwriter “electrifying” himself at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965, an event that sparked controversy at the time.
But one physical change Chalamet made to become the singer of Like A Rolling Stone was growing out his nails. Fans had already noticed his long nails in the trailer and photos from the film set, with some wondering if the nails were the result of a manicure.
“It looks like the biographical film is going to be accurate,” analyzed one social media user. “Have you ever met a guitarist?” commented another. “Many guitarists have longer nails on the hand they strum with,” said a third user.
