"As a kinetic portrait of a life in perpetual motion, Marty Supreme is a wonder. - David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter"

Washington DC, March 21

After making waves during awards season, Timothee Chalamet's A24 feature 'Marty Supreme' is set for its streaming debut on HBO Max from April 24, the platform announced Friday.

Directed by Josh Safdie, the acclaimed sports drama first hit theaters on December 25, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The film stars Timothee Chalamet, Gwyneth Paltrow, Odessa A'zion, Kevin O'Leary, Tyler Okonma (aka Tyler, the Creator), Abel Ferrara, Fran Drescher, Luke Manley, and Koto Kawaguchi. Marty Supreme follows Marty Mauser (Chalamet), an ambitious table tennis player in 1950s New York City, who is determined to become a world champion.

Safdie co-wrote the script with Ronald Bronstein and also served as one of the producers along with Chalamet, Bronstein, Eli Bush, and Anthony Katagas. The film received nine Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, Best Actor for Chalamet, Best Director for Safdie, and Best Screenplay for Safdie and Bronstein. Chalamet won a Golden Globe for his lead performance, though the film did not secure any Oscars, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Throughout the awards season, some of Chalamet's comments drew attention, including his remark last month about not wanting to be involved in an art form "no one cares about," citing ballet and opera as examples. The comments were referenced during the Oscar telecast, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

In his review for The Hollywood Reporter, chief film critic David Rooney praised the film, writing, "As a kinetic portrait of a life in perpetual motion, Marty Supreme is a wonder."

Interesting to see a Hollywood film with such a niche sport. Reminds me of the passion we see in Indian sports biopics like 'MS Dhoni' or 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag'. Hope it captures that same spirit of determination.

His comments about ballet and opera being an art form "no one cares about" were a bit off-putting, to be honest. As an artist myself, I feel no art form should be dismissed. He's a great actor, but that was a disappointing thing to say.

Nine Oscar noms but no wins? That's tough. Still, getting that many nominations is a huge achievement in itself. The cast looks fantastic. Adding it to my watchlist for April!

Good to see it's coming to a streaming platform we get here. Sometimes these A24 films take forever to release in India. Table tennis is quite popular in my college, so the subject is very relatable. Hope it does justice to the sport.

Josh Safdie is a great director. His films have a certain raw energy. Excited to see what he does with a period sports drama. The 1950s NYC setting should be visually stunning.
