Dune: Part Three Star Timothée Chalamet's Movies on Netflix to Watch Now - Netflix Tudum
He’s crashed his own look-alike contest. He’s played Bob Dylan and Willy Wonka. His jubilant front-row reaction to the New York Knicks’ championship win went viral. Now three-time Oscar nominee Timothée Chalamet is gearing up for a third adventure on Arrakis. Director Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Three features Chalamet and Zendaya, and introduces Robert Pattinson’s new villain. But this isn’t the first time Chalamet and Pattinson have shared a screen (more on that below).
Chalamet — who won a SAG Award in 2025 for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown — launched into the public eye back in 2017, with critically acclaimed films Lady Bird and Call Me by Your Name, the latter of which earned him his first Academy Award nomination. Since then, he’s played a son struggling with addiction in Beautiful Boy, fought for an intergalactic throne in Dune (2021) and its sequel (2024), and danced with an Oompa Loompa–fied Hugh Grant in Wonka. He was recently nominated for an Oscar for his role as table tennis pro Marty Mauser in Josh Safdie’s Marty Supreme. In the following films, streaming on Netflix now, Chalamet portrays a king, a mullet-ed skater punk working to help save the world, and more.
Don't Look Up
The world is ending, and two astronomers are desperately trying to get anyone — anyone — to care in Don’t Look Up. This 2021 black comedy by director Adam McKay, which landed four Oscar nominations, stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence as those two fed-up astronomers, Dr. Randall Mindy and Kate Dibiasky. They’re soon joined by Chalamet’s Yule, a young shoplifter who falls in infatuation with Kate. Can this rag-tag trio save the world, or will apathy over the comet hurtling toward Earth really end it all?
Hot Summer Nights
It’s 1991, and Daniel (Chalamet) is sent away by his mother after the death of his father to spend the summer with his aunt in Cape Cod. He falls in with local bad boy and weed dealer Hunter Strawberry (Alex Roe). Soon, Daniel asks to join Hunter’s operation, and they devise a plan to scale up. As their drug business grows, an emboldened Daniel pursues a relationship with Hunter’s sister, McKayla (Maika Monroe). It’s a summer of success — until Daniel’s ambition gets him into hot water.
The King
In this film, directed by David Michôd and based on William Shakespeare’s Henriad, Chalamet embodies Hal, the Prince of Wales who would become King Henry V of England. Thrust onto the throne after his father’s death, the young king navigates prickly palace politics and a seemingly endless war with France (including an assassination attempt and potential betrayal). Chalamet is joined by an all-star cast, including Joel Edgerton (Train Dreams, The Stranger), Lily-Rose Depp, Robert Pattinson (The Devil All the Time), and more.
