Timothée Chalamet has revealed that he was given a fine for riding a Lime Bike to the UK premiere of A Complete Unknown.
Taking place on Tuesday (January 14), the actor turned heads at the event at the BFI for his unconventional mode of transport. The star, who portrays Bob Dylan in the biopic, arrived at the premiere on a green Lime e-bike, riding it onto the red carpet.
Once he arrived, Chalamet got off the bike and ended his ride using his mobile phone. He then got back on the bike again for a couple more photos at the request of the media.
Now, in a recent interview, the star has revealed both why he chose to arrive in that way and how he faced a fine shortly afterwards. Promoting the biopic on the French talk show Quotidien (as per Variety), he recalled how a failure to park the bike properly led to him being charged £60 by the government.

As highlighted by Variety, the actor also made the rounds on social media after co-hosting ESPNâs College Game Day and recreating some of Bob Dylanâs most memorable looks.
RecommendedThe film is set to hit cinemas tomorrow (January 17) in the UK, and to mark the release, NME has launched a special print edition magazine celebrating the film and the legacy of Dylan. The 26-page one-shot is available now â find out where to get it here.
NME awarded A Complete Unknown a four-star review, writing: âThe most important (and often trickiest) job of any music movie is to get the music right. And this nails that. If youâre a Bob newbie, youâll leave the cinema ready to dive into his back catalogue. If youâre already a fan, the next few weeks will be spent making playlists of lesser-known B-sides or reading the lore around a scene you werenât familiar with. And thatâs why it was a good idea to make this film â a mad idea, but a good one.â

AdvertisementChalamet recently spoke to NME about his preparation for the role and recalled the extensive amount of time he put into getting the character right. âI had the time to put the 10,000 hours in,â he said. âThere wasnât a deadline on it. I wasnât learning for anyone else. I was learning for myself.â
âSomeone said the other day that [Dylan] was âsomeone who doesnât give a fuck about other peopleâ,â he added of the iconic singer-songwriter. âI donât think itâs that. He was concerned about his art, and never pretended not to be.â
