Timothee Chalamet may have just stepped into Bob Dylan’s boots and Wonka’s velvet coat — but now, the Oscar nominee could be glowing up in a whole new way. Skincare legend Ole Henriksen has revealed that in a "dream world," the Call Me By Your Name star would play him in The Glowing Man, a musical biopic based on Ole’s extraordinary life. And while no deal is in place, the casting hope alone has already sent excitement rippling through Cannes.
Revealed during the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, the film is backed by production company NO FAT EGO and will trace Ole’s journey from modest beginnings to A-list facialist, working his magic on everyone from Barbra Streisand to Sylvester Stallone. But beneath the celebrity sparkle lies a story of grit and grace.
"He is such an icon… Delicate, like me, He is a big superstar and I'm afraid that his salary would be the entire movie budget — and he deserves it, he's a great actor, he would be a great choice," Ole tells HELLO!, speaking of Chalamet.
Whether or not Timothee signs on, Ole is set to play a key role in casting the film — especially when it comes to portraying his family. And just like his skincare, this story promises to leave a lasting glow.
