Every star, no matter how huge, has their favorite sports team and sometimes, this one comes as a bit of a surprise. For Timothée Chalamet for example, the Franco-American actor starring in “Dune 2” on February 28, it is AS Saint-Étienne, the historic club of French football.
Guest on the set of the show “Quotidien” by Yann Barthès in the presence of other members of the film team (Denis Villeneuve, Josh Brolin, Austin Butler, Léa Seydoux, Stellan Skarsgard and Souheila Yacoub), the actor who plays Paul Atréides was awarded… ASSE scarves, his favorite club.
After having passionately intoned the famous “Who are the strongest?” Obviously, it’s the Greens…”, he was able to re-explain the nature of this unexpected passion: “It’s my father’s childhood football team”. “It’s great to have that,” he savored. To see Josh Brolin with a Saint-Étienne scarf! (laughs) It’s a bit like two worlds colliding. »
He also took the opportunity to send a very personal message to the Professional Football League: “I have a request to make on the Ligue 2 BKT Youtube: score the goals a little faster! They wait until all the matches are over, I don’t know why. I’m in Los Angeles, waiting for the highlights! » That’s good, it’s a question that falls within the framework of the negotiations around TV rights, which are in full swing at the moment.
