Chalamet's Golden Globe Win Lifts Marty Supreme Ahead of India Release

Timothée Chalamet won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor (Musical or Comedy) at the 83rd Golden Globe Awards for his performance in Marty Supreme, marking his first win at the ceremony and giving the film a timely boost ahead of its India release.

The actor was recognised for playing Marty Mauser, a fiercely competitive New Yorker chasing success in professional table tennis.

Directed by Josh Safdie, Marty Supreme blends sport, humour and character-driven drama, with Chalamet carrying the film through an intense physical performance and sharp comic timing.

The role required extensive preparation, including months of table tennis training, which has been widely noted by critics during the awards season.

Chalamet prevailed in a competitive category that included several veteran actors, underlining his growing stature in Hollywood. The win adds to an already strong awards-season run for the film, which also received nominations in other major Golden Globe categories, including Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy.

During his acceptance speech, Chalamet thanked the film’s creative team and acknowledged the personal significance of the moment, after previous Golden Globe nominations that ended without a win. He also offered a brief public nod to his partner, Kylie Jenner, who was present at the ceremony.

Marty Supreme is produced by A24, a studio known for backing director-driven projects that often gain traction during awards season. Early reviews have praised the film’s offbeat tone and Chalamet’s commitment to a role that balances vulnerability with competitive edge.

The Golden Globe recognition is expected to raise interest in international markets, including India, where the film is scheduled for a theatrical release later this month. Distributors believe the award will help position Marty Supreme beyond niche audiences, attracting viewers drawn by Chalamet’s performance and the film’s sports-drama premise.
