Timothée Chalamet appears to be having a tough time after his statement on the relevance of opera and ballet from last month recently went viral.
The actor had been speaking with Matthew McConaughey at the University of Texas on February 24 about efforts to preserve cinema.
While he appreciated people working to keep the theatrical experience of moviegoing viable, he said, “I don’t want to be working in ballet or opera, or in things where it’s like, ‘Hey, keep this thing alive,’ even though no one cares about this anymore.”
