Three major roles that Timothée Chalamet auditioned for but did not get

Even one of the best guys in Hollywood sometimes has bad luck.

29-year-old Timothée Chalamet can be considered a lucky actor. He has participated in many popular film projects and was nominated for an Oscar twice before turning thirty. Among young Hollywood artists, he is definitely at the top, and his fee has grown to ten million dollars.

However, there have been moments when the handsome actor with sad eyes wasn't so lucky. At least three major franchises turned him down. We will now tell you which ones.

In an interview with Rolling Stone U.K., Timothée revealed that he auditioned for one of the lead roles in the first "Divergent". The film, released in 2014, featured a whole host of young actors, but Chalamet was not among them. However, Theo James, Jai Courtney, and Miles Teller appeared in the blockbuster.

In the same conversation with the press, the actor spoke about his attempt to land the lead role in "The Maze Runner" (2014). Timothée was not chosen due to his slender build, as the filmmakers were looking for a bigger guy. Eventually, Dylan O'Brien became the star of the film.

"I tried to gain weight. I couldn't! I simply couldn't. My metabolism or whatever it was, damn it, couldn't do it," Chalamet commented.

The third rejection was probably the most disappointing for the actor. He auditioned for the role of Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe but lost out to Tom Holland. Timothée told The Hollywood Reporter that he wanted to return for another audition and read the script again, but his agent dissuaded him from the idea. Earlier zoomboola.com reported that Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner confirmed their relationship.
