Gwyneth Paltrow recently shared a humorous anecdote about the buzz surrounding her on-set kiss with Timothée Chalamet while filming the upcoming movie Marty Supreme. During her appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the Oscar-winning actress revealed how her “mom group texts” erupted after photos of the scene leaked online.
Paparazzi Intrusion on Set
Discussing the challenges of filming intimate scenes, Paltrow said:
“You’re trying to have this scene, it’s a private moment, and then there are paparazzi.”
The moment in question occurred while shooting in Central Park, New York City, where Paltrow stars alongside Chalamet in Josh Safdie’s highly anticipated film. The plot revolves around the life of a ping-pong player, with Chalamet as her co-star.
On October 16, 2024, the paparazzi captured shots of Paltrow and Chalamet during a pivotal scene, sparking discussions across social media and, apparently, in Paltrow’s personal circles.
“All my mom group texts were on fire, like ‘Oh my God!’” she added, highlighting the attention generated by the incident.

Timothée Chalamet’s Rising Stardom
Chalamet’s popularity has soared following recent successes in Wonka and Dune: Part Two, making him a central figure of public fascination. His allure extends beyond Hollywood, inspiring events like a Timothée Chalamet lookalike contest in New York City, where participants competed for a $50 cash prize. The contest gained unexpected traction when Chalamet himself made a surprise appearance, causing such a stir that police had to intervene.
The actor’s influence has even reached international circles. Russian actor Mark Eydelshteyn, featured in the Cannes-winning film Anora, has been nicknamed the “Russian Timothée Chalamet” by major publications like Variety and New York Magazine.
Upcoming Projects
Chalamet is set to appear in the biographical film A Complete Unknown, where he portrays legendary musician Bob Dylan. The movie, releasing on December 25, 2024, has already garnered awards buzz, with many comparing Chalamet’s potential to the success of Rami Malek (Bohemian Rhapsody) and Austin Butler (Elvis).
