Actor Timothée Chalamet has set a new Academy Awards record, becoming the youngest man in history to receive three acting nominations. At just 30 years and 26 days old, Chalamet earned a Best Actor nomination for his performance as table tennis prodigy Marty Mauser in the sports dramedyMarty Supreme.
The achievement marks a major milestone in Chalamet’s career, adding to his previous Oscar-nominated performances inCall Me by Your NameandA Complete Unknown. Beyond acting, Chalamet also received a Best Picture nomination as a producer onMarty Supreme, making him the youngest dual nominee in acting and producing categories in the same year—surpassing a record previously held by Warren Beatty since 1967.
Chalamet’s recent awards-season success includes a Golden Globe win for Best Actor (Comedy or Musical) forMarty Supremeand a historic Best Actor win at The Actor Awards forA Complete Unknown. The film has also secured nominations in major categories such as Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay, further strengthening its Oscar momentum.
With this recognition, Chalamet continues to redefine Hollywood’s evolving landscape, where younger talent is increasingly celebrated for creative contributions both in front of and behind the camera. A potential Best Actor win would place him among the youngest winners in Oscar history.
