Narrative
In 1961, an unknown 19-year-old Bob Dylan arrives in New York City with his guitar. He forges connections with musical icons from Greenwich Village, resulting in a groundbreaking show that resonates around the world. According to a Collider interview with cinematographer Phedon Papamichael in October 2020, recently announced COVID precautions taken by studios delayed a Bob Dylan film project; this would have led Papamichael and director James Mangold to move on to other projects. “I don’t think he’s dead,” Papamichael said of the Chalamet-led biopic, “but it’s hard to pull off in the COVID era because it’s all set in small clubs with a lot of vintage costume props, so you can have fun. I have a lot of hair and makeup. So our next project is Indiana Jones 5; (2022), actually. Chard does that.”
