Actor Timothée Chalamet is set to collaborate with filmmaker Josh Safdie for his upcoming film with A24.

According to Variety, the 28-year-old actor will not only star but also produce the project which is titled “Marty Supreme". Chalamet will portray the role of ping pong player Marty Reisman in the project.

It is written by Safdie and Ronald Bronstein, who are also producing the film alongside Eli Bush and Anthony Katagas.

A24 Movie also confirmed the news on the official 'X' handle with a poster that read, "Marty Supreme, MADE IN AMERICA." The caption of the post mentioned, "Josh Safdie's MARTY SUPREME starring @RealChalamet. Coming soon." Marty Reisman was an American table tennis player and author. He was the 1958 and 1960 U.S. Men's singles champion and also hardbat champion in the 1997 U.S. He died in December 2012.

The project reunites Safdie, 40, with A24 Movie with which he previously collaborated for “Uncut Gems” and “Good Time.” Chalamet has been a part of the projects like "Wonka", "Dune" and "Call Me by Your Name".
