The King: Timothee Chalamet & David Michod Interview

The King: Timothee Chalamet & David Michod Interview
With the historical drama The King opening in limited release this weekend before streaming on Netflix starting November 1st, I recently sat down with Timothée Chalamet and co-writer/director David Michod for an exclusive interview. If you haven’t seen the trailer, The King revolves around a wayward prince (Chalamet) who ascends the English Throne upon his father’s death at which point he must navigate the politics of the war-torn kingdom. The film blends historical fact and literary fiction to craft a fresh take on the material, which has been the subject of previous films and the William Shakespeare plays Henry IV, Parts 1 & 2 and Henry V. The King also stars Sean Harris, Ben Mendelsohn, Robert Pattinson, Lily-Rose Depp, and Joel Edgerton (who also co-wrote the script).
During the brief but fun interview, Timothee Chalamet and David Michod talk about filming the big 3rd act battle sequence that involved heavy armor and mud, as well as what it was like for Chalamet to deliver an important speech to the troops before the battle began.

Guadagnino's approach to acting through finding the real experience seems to have influenced Timothée's approach.
