4 must-watch Timothée Chalamet movies to stream on Netflix while you can

Everyone is a Timothée Chalamet fan, right? He shows up in films, augments their quality, has the charisma of James Dean, and just performs his work at an elite level. Also, when he wants to, he can sound just like Bob Dylan.

Chalamet received an Oscar nomination this past week for his role as Dylan in A Complete Unknown. You cannot yet stream that film on Netflix, but hopefully at some point this year. The proverbial fingers are crossed.

Still, there are many movies that Chalamet appears in that you can view on Netflix. Every one of them is a winner. The four below are can't-miss films (though one does not have Chalamet in the lead).

Four movies currently streaming on Netflix with Timothée Chalamet that you must see

The King

Chalamet versus Robert Pattinson? Yes, please. And both actors do fantastic jobs of playing off of one another. The movie is a bit too sparse and bleak, and that was clearly the way director David Michôd wanted to go. It ultimately does a disservice to the actors and the source material, though.

Still, the film is worth watching because of Chalamet alone. He plays a young Henry V who is just under what some might call brooding. He intuitively knows how to wage war and is not against taking the most violent way out. It's stark stuff and would have been even better in black and white.

Dune

First off, the decision to remake the original film from 1984 was brilliantly made when the filmmakers chose not to have one long movie but several. This might have seemed like a money grab, but the result was that the characters became even more fleshed out and real.

Chalamet as Paul Atreides is perfect. He plays the lead as a son who arrives on a dangerous planet after his father has become the steward. All heck breaks lose, though, after competing tribes fight for the last of a valuable resource. Like everything Chalamet does, he performs confidently and is in full control of what he is doing.

Catch this on Netflix while you can, though. It stops streaming on January 31.

Dune Part Two

The second part of what will probably be at least three films is just as good. This is likely because director Denis Villeneuve did not approach each film as something new, but saw the entire arc as one project.

Chalamet and Zendaya steal this episode, though. She is not frail, and he understands what his character must do. Their chemistry is film magic.

Interstellar

This is certainly not a Chalamet vehicle as he plays the younger version of a character named Tom. The actor does his limited job exceedingly well, of course, but he is not the reason to see the flick.

Instead, watch because Matthew McConaughey is brilliant as an ex-NASA pilot who has to find a new planet for humans to live on after Earth has become uninhabitable. The cast also includes Anne Hathaway and Jessica Chastain. Did we mention it was directed by Christopher Nolan? So, there is that, too.
