First trailer for new Bob Dylan biopic is released

The first trailer for the new Bob Dylan biographical movie “A Complete Unknown” was released and shows the actor Timothee Chalamet as the legendary Folk Rock musician. The movie will show how Dylan started in his home state of Minnesota all the way to New York City, where he started to achieve fame for his songwriting talent. It tells the story of his rise to fame until the famous performance at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965. Other incredible musicians will also be portrayed in the movie, like Sylvie Russo, Joan Baez, Alan Lomax, Johnny Cash and Pete Seeger.

The director James Mangold talked with Rolling Stone recently about the movie and recalled the conversation he had with Dylan. “The first time I sat down with him, Bob said, ‘What’s this movie about, Jim?’ I said, ‘It’s about a guy who’s choking to death in Minnesota, and leaves behind all his friends and family and reinvents himself in a brand new place, makes new friends, builds a new family, becomes phenomenally successful, starts to choke to death again — and runs away.” Then according to the director, Dylan replied: I like that”.

The American director James Mangold is famous for directing movies like “Identity” (2003), “Johnny & June” (2005), “3:10 to Yuma” (2007), “Ford Vs Ferrari” (2019) and “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” (2023). There is still no official release date for the movie but it is expected to be out this year.
