Magazine cover

Timothée Chalamet stars in monochrome outfits on the cover of Time magazine; see the pictures

Actor Timothée Chalamet made the last cover of Time magazine.

The 25-year-old, who will play young Will Wonka in his upcoming film, featured in monochrome outfits on the cover – he wore a high-necked black outfit, paired with flared pants and matching shoes on the cover, and a white shirt in another.

Photos were clicked by Ruven Afanador.

Share his experience working on the film Wonka, a prequel to Charlie and the chocolate factory, Chalamet told the magazine, “It’s a celebration of being off-center and being okay with the weirder parts of you that don’t quite fit.”

Chalamet, who is known for his androgynous style, also opened up about his perception of masculinity – “more sensitive, more emotional, in keeping with his generation’s permissive attitudes about self-expression,” the magazine mentions.

Chalamet also wants to use his platform as a public figure responsibly. “He wants to use his platform in a thoughtful way, to spread the right kinds of messages across the world, whether it’s mental health awareness, a topic he wants to see become ‘less a sharing of Instagram slides and something more intrinsic, “or climate,” the magazine writes.
