Timothee Chalamet fans were left swooning after the actor spoke French at the premiere of new Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown.

The French-American actor was attending the Paris premiere of his film, when he busted out his French – sending fans into a spin.

Chalamet was raised in the US, but his father is French and the star grew up speaking the language.

While it is not the first time the 29-year-old actor has spoken French fluently, English speaking fans were taken aback by the bilingual actor.

‘Canceling a psychiatry appointment to watch a video of Timothee Chalamet speaking in French,’ one fan posted to X, formerly known as Twitter.  

‘I would listen to Timothee speaking French forever,’ another admirer wrote. 

According to someone else, ‘Timothee Chalamet speaking French is my religion.’

‘Red nose… the choker… speaking French… he’s so, so hot,’ wrote another.

‘Whatever you say gorgeous,’ laughed another, in response to the actor conversing in French.

In 2022, Timothee gave fans a glimpse of his parent’s relationship during an interview while promoting his film, The French Dispatch.

‘I loved The French Dispatch because it really reminded me of my father’s heritage and how he met my mother,’ the Call Me By Your Name star said.

He fondly remembers the instance when his parents first crossed paths. He recounted the story, mentioning that his father was in New York for work, employed as a journalist at Le Parisien, a prominent French newspaper. Currently, his father holds a position at the United Nations.

‘My mother was a dancer when she met my father, and now she’s working in real estate. But you could see the parallels,’ he finished.

On Tuesday, the actor – who is currently dating Kylie Jenner – caused a scene when he arrived to the London premiere of a Complete Unknown on a Lime electric bike.

However, the Academy Award nominee’s two-wheeled red carpet transportation — that went viral on social media — ended up costing him.

Chalamet revealed on the French chat show Quotidien on Wednesday that he received a £65 fine (which converts to roughly $79) for incorrectly parking the e-bike at BFI Southbank.

‘There was a traffic jam,’ said Chalamet, who spoke in French, of his reason for choosing to take an ‘ecological’ bike to the premiere instead of a chauffeured car.

Unbeknownst to the actor, he parked the e-bike in an area where he ‘actually wasn’t allowed to park.

‘I got a fine and actually it was horrible because it was actually kind of an advert for them,’ Chalamet told host Yann Romain Barthès.

Chalamet’s bike path to his film’s big London premiere also garnered a parking fine for professional photographer Aidan Zamiri, who rode along with the actor on a Lime e-bike on his own.

On Tuesday, Zamiri shared a video of himself and Chalamet riding across Westminster Bridge en route to the premiere on his Instagram Story, with the accompanying caption: ‘Favorite mode of transport.’

He later admitted the ride had been terminated by Lime – who monitor each journey – because he was idle ‘for an unusually long time,’ before eventually picking up a £2 fine (which coverts to roughly $2.40) — for ‘incorrect parking.’

Chalamet rode the red carpet on the green bike before ending his ride via Lime’s mobile app — though he later discovered that he, too, received a parking violation.
