Grab The Tissues, The Call Me By Your Name Sequel Will Bring Back Timothée Chalamet

Begin stockpiling those Kleenex boxes right now. Any time the sequel to Call Me By Your Name hits theaters, it will do so featuring both Timothée Chalamet and Armie Hammer, its original star-crossed lovers.


This news comes by way of Italian newspaper La Repubblica by way of the Variety, which should delight fans of the original movie. Unfortunately, there aren't any extra specifics about the sequel just although, which will undoubtedly be based on the sequel to the original novel, Find Me. The second novel takes place 10 years right following the events of the initial, and also you could bet it's just as heartwrenching as that emotional final scene with Timmy, who's a super convincing crier.


"Of course, it was an excellent pleasure to work with Timothée Chalamet, Armie Hammer, Michael Stuhlbarg, Esther Garrel and the other actors. Each person will be in the new movie," director Luca Guadagnino told La Republic.


Chalamet originally took on the role of 17-year-old Elio Perlman, a student in rural Italy who meets and falls in love with graduate student Oliver, who hails from the United States. While the pair share a fling over the summer and develop a romance, their relationship doesn't exactly have a happy ending by the end of the season.


The movie bagged four Oscar nominations whenever it debuted, including Best Actor and Best Picture nods for Chalamet.


Unfortunately, work on the movie at present has stalled, because of the coronavirus pandemic. There isn't any concrete data on as soon as things will wind back up into full-scale production mode just although, although at least it looks like the original cast is on board and willing to go. That should at least give us a little more time to recover from the gut punch the initial movie was.
