8 Mar - After working with Austin Butler in "Dune: Chapter Two", Timothee Chalamet is expressing desire to work with the actor again, hopefully in his upcoming Bob Dylan biopic.

The actor, who is set to play the American singer-songwriter in the upcoming James Mangold helmer, "A Complete Unknown", shared with NME that he would love it if Butler's Elvis can make a cameo in the movie.

It is noted that Butler played the king of rock n' roll in the previous Baz Luhrmann 2022 movie.

"I was kind of wishing we could create a musical cinematic universe," Chalamet said. "There is an Elvis character in the Johnny Cash biopic [2005's "Walk the Line"]. I can't speak from Elvis' perspective, but deep in the Bob Dylan lore now, he had tremendous respect for Elvis and Sun Records."

It was last April that Chalamet was announced as the actor who will play Bob Dylan in the upcoming biopic, with Mangold saying that the actor will be singing with his own voice for the movie.
