Timothée Chalamet Wins First Golden Globe for ‘Marty Supreme’ Performance

The result underscores momentum from a high-visibility campaign plus years of table‑tennis training.

Overview

  • Chalamet won Best Actor in a Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy for Marty Supreme, marking his first Golden Globe after multiple prior nominations.
  • He prevailed over Leonardo DiCaprio, George Clooney, Ethan Hawke, Lee Byung‑hun and Jesse Plemons in what he called a stacked field.
  • In his acceptance speech, he thanked director Josh Safdie, the cast, his parents and partner Kylie Jenner, and joked about thanking Kevin O’Leary, “Mr. Wonderful.”
  • The A24 release has earned about $84 million worldwide to date, powered by splashy marketing including a Las Vegas Sphere activation and an orange blimp, and it remains in theaters.
  • The win follows his Critics Choice lead-actor honor and caps six to seven years of role preparation with table‑tennis coaches Diego Schaaf and Wei Wang.
