With Timothée Chalamet, Edward Norton, Elle Fanning, Monica Barbaro, Boyd Holbrook, Dan Fogler, Norbert Leo Butz, Scoot McNairy

Against the backdrop of a vibrant music scene and tumultuous cultural upheaval in New York City circa 1961, an enigmatic 19-year-old from Minnesota arrives with his guitar and revolutionary talent, destined to change the course of American music. He forges intimate relationships with music icons of Greenwich Village on his meteoric rise, culminating in a groundbreaking and controversial performance that reverberates worldwide. Timothée Chalamet (Dune, Wonka, Little Women) stars and sings as Bob Dylan in the latest film by director James Mangold (Ford v. Ferrari, Logan, Girl, Interrupted), recounting the true story behind the rise of one of history’s most iconic singer-songwriters. The supporting cast portraying intimates and peers includes Elle Fanning and Edward Norton.
