Timothée Chalamet Skewers His Own Marketing Genius in Hilarious A24 Zoom Sketch
Table of Contents
Timothée Chalamet is continuing his unconventional promotional campaign for the upcoming film Marty Supreme with a self-deprecating twist. After generating buzz with a series of unique and unexpected marketing strategies, the actor has released an 18-minute satirical video mocking both the hype surrounding his ideas and the often-absurd world of corporate marketing meetings.
The video,posted to Chalamet’s social media,depicts a Zoom call with A24 employees where he pitches increasingly outlandish ideas to promote Marty Supreme. The sketch expertly parodies the dynamic between a celebrity and the marketing team tasked with bringing their vision to life.
The “Brilliant” Ideas on Display
Chalamet, playing it entirely straight-faced, proposes ideas ranging from the ambitious to the utterly ridiculous.These include painting the Statue of Liberty in the signature orange of Marty Supreme, and orchestrating a ping pong ball drop over Tyler, The Creator’s crowd during his Camp Flog Gnaw performance, delivered from an orange blimp.
The humor is amplified by the contrast between the grandiosity of Chalamet’s suggestions and the simplicity of their visual representations. He presents a crudely drawn blimp – seemingly created in minutes – as the result of “six months of work” by a visual artist.
A Masterclass in Deadpan Comedy
The reactions of the A24 representatives on the Zoom call are a highlight of the sketch. Whether they are actors or actual A24 employees remains unclear, but they deliver clipped, emotionless responses, expertly maintaining a professional facade while clearly struggling to contain their disbelief. A notably memorable moment occurs around the two-minute mark, where the team visibly strains to remain impassive as Chalamet repeatedly yells “schwap!” to emphasize his points.
Marty Supreme‘s Unconventional Rollout

Chalamet appears to be actively commenting on and subverting the expectations created by this buzz. as the film’s release date approaches, it remains to be seen what innovative – and possibly satirical – strategies he will employ next.
