Timothée Chalamet has a way of turning even a simple movie event into a moment people keep talking about.
This weekend in London was a perfect example. He showed up to celebrate his newest film, Marty Supreme, and left fans buzzing about something else, too.
Not just awards season. Not just the movie. But the kind of question that can make even a seasoned actor grin and squirm a little.
On Sunday, Feb. 1, Chalamet appeared at a screening and conversation at Leicester Square’s Prince Charles Cinema.
The event included a Q and A, and it was moderated by Love Actually writer and director Richard Curtis. Curtis is 69, and he clearly came ready to have fun with the crowd and with Chalamet.
According to Variety and fan-captured footage from the room, the conversation was a mix of career talk and quick questions.
Curtis asked for “one-word” answers in a rapid-fire segment, which is always a risky setup when you are speaking to someone as charismatic as Chalamet.
Curtis did not ease into it. He opened the quick questions by poking directly at Chalamet’s love life. “Do you have a girlfriend?” Curtis asked. Timothee Chalamet smiled and answered simply with “Yes.”
That alone was enough to get the room going, since Chalamet rarely talks in detail about his relationship. He has been dating Kylie Jenner since 2023, but he tends to keep things low-key in interviews.
Curtis followed up with a bigger question, and you could feel the shift in the room. “Do you think you’ll ever get married?” Chalamet did not shut it down, but he did call out how bold it was. “Wow, that’s so personal,” he said, grinning.
Curtis immediately tossed in another question that sounded like it came straight from the audience’s curiosity. “Can we come?” Chalamet kept smiling, but he also knew exactly what kind of headline this could turn into. “You’re going to get me in trouble, man,” he joked, before answering, “Yes. Yes.”
It was playful, quick, and obviously not a formal announcement of anything. Still, the exchange landed because it felt spontaneous and human. It was a reminder that even movie stars sometimes get caught off guard by a simple question about the future.
The personal moment was just one part of a bigger night focused on Chalamet’s work. His performance in Marty Supreme has been getting serious praise. He is nominated for Best Actor at the 2026 Oscars, with the ceremony set for March 15.
The attention makes sense. Chalamet has built a career on roles that require a lot of emotional precision. When he lands one, it usually becomes an awards conversation. This season is shaping up to be another one of those stretches.
Chalamet is already collecting major wins this year. He won Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Motion Picture Comedy at the 2026 Golden Globes on Jan. 11. Jenner attended the ceremony with him, and she kissed him as he was called to the stage.
During his acceptance speech, he thanked the people closest to him, including Jenner. He also framed the moment through gratitude, which made the personal shout-out feel even warmer.
“My dad instilled in me a spirit of gratitude growing up,” Chalamet said. “Always be grateful for what you have. It’s allowed me to leave this ceremony in the past empty-handed, my head held high, grateful just to be here. I’d be lying if I didn’t say those moments didn’t make this moment that much sweeter. For my parents, for my partner, I love you. Thank you so much.”
It is the kind of speech that hits because it is not flashy. It is not trying too hard. It sounds like someone who knows how weird this life can be, and who is trying to keep his feet on the ground while the cameras are flashing.

Earlier in January, Chalamet made another rare comment about his relationship at the 2026 Critics’ Choice Awards, where he accepted Best Actor. “Lastly, I’ll just say, thank you to my partner of three years,” he said. “Thank you for our foundation. I love you. I couldn’t do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much.”
Jenner was in the audience, and the moment turned even sweeter when she was seen mouthing “I love you, too,” back to him. It is notable because neither of them shares much publicly about the day-to-day of their relationship.
When they do show affection in public, it tends to be small and quiet. That makes moments like this feel more meaningful to fans who have been following along since the first dating reports in 2023.
Even though they have been together since 2023, their biggest public milestone came in May 2025. That is when they made their red carpet debut in Rome at the 70th David Di Donatello Awards. Chalamet received the David for Cinematic Excellence honor, and they stepped into the spotlight as a couple in a way they had not done before.
Since then, it has felt like they are choosing their moments carefully. They show up when it matters. They support each other at big events. And they still keep a lot to themselves.
The London Q and A exchange was funny, but it also gave fans a little peek at how Chalamet handles questions that are not about scripts or directors. He did not dodge it. He did not overexplain. He joked, smiled, and gave an answer that was just vague enough to stay safe, while still feeding the room a little hope.
For now, the biggest thing on his calendar is clearly awards season, with the Oscars coming up in March. But after a night like this, it is easy to see why people are curious.
Chalamet is at the top of his game professionally, and he seems genuinely happy personally, too. That combination is always going to get people wondering what comes next.
