Timothy admitted that his co-star Ronan once scolded him badly when he was holding up production by arriving late to the set. “I was trying to do this thing on the phone, and I heard a really loud bang on the door of my trailer, so I was thinking someone was dead, and I opened the door and there was Saoirse in the bald cap, and she She said, ‘Get to the trailer right now,'” Timothée Chalamet said.
first meetings
Before they met to shoot Lady Bird, which was written and directed by Greta Gerwig, Timothy was introduced to Ronan by Emery Cohen, who worked with him on the 2016 hit Brooklyn.
“I kept hearing this name ‘Saoirse, Saoirse’ and when I saw the spelling of the name I didn’t put two and two together because I’m an ignorant American, but then we started working, and I was immediately amazed , Timothy said.
Adding to this, Ronan said, “We were very lucky that we clicked immediately and we had Greta, who from day one seemed very excited about what was happening between us.”
Following release, both earned their nominations at the Academy Awards. Timothy was nominated for the film Call Me by Your Name, while Ronan received a nomination for his role in Lady Bird.
