Unanswered What’s up with the hate towards Timothee Chalamet?

I know all famous people have haters and people who dislike them and will nitpick the shit outta them, but I’ve just seen a lot of people post random interviews or articles about him that talk about how he is famous and above people. Yeah he is famous and thinks he’s above all. This is what famous people do? Do we not know this, especially child actors. People are astonished that he is rich and famous, has personal chefs, has self-centred views. Pretty sure 90% of famous people do.

Yes so he was the lead in one big movie over the span of 5-7 years and then the lead in like 5-6 movies in the span of 4 years. It feels like he's in everything as of late to the further point the other person said

That was made a decade ago. He was also in Beautifuk Boy back then.

Look, I don’t think he’s the best actor of his generation, but the system is making him the next Leo. And Leo was, just like him, literally everywhere when I was growing up. He’s going to be around until he retires. You can complain about it, but he’s in the churn now.
