Timothée Chalamet was almost put off acting

Timothée Chalamet was "terrified" of acting after growing up in a New York City apartment.

The 29-year-old actor has reflected on his childhood in the Big Apple including a spell living in a rent-subsidised building in the Theatre District, where he saw a lot of up-and-coming performers struggling as they tried to make it in showbusiness.
