Searchlight Pictures has shared a trailer for the film ‘A Complete Unknown,’ featuring Timothée Chalamet as music icon Bob Dylan. A Complete Unknown is based on the Elijah Wald book Dylan Goes Electric! with the film directed and co-written by James Mangold (‘Girl, Interrupted,’ ‘Walk the Line.’)
A Complete Unknown is set in “the influential New York music scene of the early ’60s” and follows a 19-year-old Dylan (Chalamet) as the Minnesota musician experiences “a meteoric rise as a folk singer to concert halls and the top of the charts — his songs and mystique becoming a worldwide sensation — culminating in his groundbreaking electric rock and roll performance at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965.”
The cast of ‘A Complete Unknown’ also includes Edward Norton as songwriter and musician Pete Seeger, Elle Fanning as artist Sylvie Russo, Monica Barbaro as singer and musician Joan Baez, and Boyd Holbrook as singer-songwriter Johnny Cash.
