Timothée Chalamet Will Break Your Heart In First Beautiful Boy Trailer

It's hard to imagine that just each year ago Timothée Chalamet was a name that barely registered on our collective consciousness — unless obviously you were a fan of Homeland, the New York theater scene, or had the possibility to be able to see an early screening of Call Me By Your Name — although right now the 22-year-old Oscar nominee is the internet's latest boyfriend and arguably one of the primary stars on the planet. (Not to say, he is a newly minted member of the Academy, also)


However Chalamet is now filming Netflix's The King in UK, the opening trailer for his next film, Beautiful Boy, just dropped — and yes it looks like Chalamet might have another shot at winning that Oscar come fall. Just watch his heartbreaking efficiency in the initial scene of this trailer:


Felix Van Groeningen's harrowing look at addiction stars Steve Carell and Chalamet as David and Nic Sheff, a father-son duo whose relationship is rocked by Nic's addiction. Based on the best-selling memoirs from the Sheffs, the film chronicles "the heartbreaking and inspiring experience of survival, relapse, and recovery in a family member coping with addiction over several years


Beautiful Boy also stars Maura Tierney Amy Ryan, and it also opens in theaters on October 12 — just in time for awards season.
