Timothee Chalamet bags his first Golden Globe Award for 'Marty Supreme' after multiple near-misses

Timothee Chalamet secures his first Golden Globe Award for his role in 'Marty Supreme,' after several past nominations. Read his heartfelt speech.

"I'd be lying if I said those moments didn't make this one that much sweeter. - Timothee Chalamet"

Los Angeles, January 12

The popular film Marty Supreme has added another title under its belt as actor Timothee Chalamet won his first Golden Globe Award on Sunday night.

Chalamet won the award for his role as a fast-talking and driven table tennis player in the comedy film Marty Supreme. This marked the first Golden Globe win of his career after several past nominations, according to Variety.

Earlier, the actor had been nominated for films like Call Me By Your Name, Beautiful Boy, Wonka, and A Complete Unknown. However, he had returned home without a trophy each time. This made his win at the latest ceremony even more special.

During his acceptance speech, Chalamet spoke about lessons from his childhood and how they helped him stay positive even after past losses.

"My dad instilled in me a spirit of gratitude growing up. 'Always be grateful for what you have.' It's allowed me to leave the ceremony in the past empty-handed with my head held high," he said, as per Variety.

"I'd be lying if I said those moments didn't make this one that much sweeter," he added.

Marty Supreme is directed by Josh Safdie and follows the journey of a fictional character named Marty Mauser, who works hard to chase his dream of becoming a table tennis champion.

Chalamet was nominated in a strong category alongside actors like George Clooney, Ethan Hawke, Jesse Plemons, Lee Byung-hun, and Leonardo DiCaprio.

The Golden Globe Awards are currently being held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. The upcoming 2026 Golden Globe ceremony will be hosted by comedian Nikki Glaser.

So happy for him! His speech about gratitude from his dad was really touching. It's a good lesson for all of us, especially the youth here who get so stressed about results. Enjoy the journey!

Haven't seen Marty Supreme yet. Is it streaming anywhere? The plot sounds a bit niche - table tennis champion? But if Timothee is in it, must be good. Will check it out.

Respectfully, while I'm happy for him, I feel the category was incredibly strong. Leonardo DiCaprio's performance was also award-worthy this year. Tough competition!

His dedication is inspiring. From 'Wonka' to this, he chooses such different roles. Indian actors should also experiment more instead of sticking to safe commercial formulas. More power to him!

Good for him. But honestly, Golden Globes have lost some credibility in recent years. Still, a win is a win. Hope he gets the Oscar nod too.
