The Library of the Performing Arts shared a video of Timothée Chalamet dancing ballet at six years old following the actor’s loss at last Sunday’s Oscars (15).
At the time, the young Chalamet was performing in a production of Romeo & Juliet choreographed by Jacques d’Amboise. He was wearing a leotard, cupid wings, and holding a bow as if he were about to shoot an arrow.
“From ballet to opera and beyond, the Library of the Performing Arts is home to recordings, photographs, programs, and archives that document the performing arts,” reads the caption of the post shared by the Library of the Performing Arts on Instagram last Tuesday (17).
The post comes after two key moments in Chalamet’s life in recent weeks. The first was an infamous comment made by the actor suggesting that “no one cares” about ballet and opera nowadays. The statement drew heavy criticism from ballet and opera companies, as well as artists from both disciplines and beyond.
The second is the crushing loss of Chalamet and the film he starred in, Marty Supreme, at last Sunday’s Oscars (15). Chalamet was nominated for Best Actor, but the award went to Michael B. Jordan for his dual role as Smoke and Stack in the film Sinners. Meanwhile, Marty Supreme lost all nine categories it was nominated in.
Now, Chalamet will move forward with his career. Last Tuesday (17), a trailer for Dune: Part Three was released. In it, the actor reprises his role as Paul Atreides in the film set to hit theaters on December 18, 2026.
