See Leonardo DiCaprio Hug It Out With Timothée Chalamet After Losing Best Actor at Golden Globes
Robert Pattinson paddled his way into Marty Supreme.
Indeed, it seems the Twilight alum had a secret role in the Timothée Chalamet movie that viewers may have missed if their ears weren’t attuned to his voice.
“No one knows this, but that voice—the commentator, the umpire—is Pattinson,” Marty Supreme director Josh Safdie said during an interview at the British Film Institute in London Jan. 13, per Variety, referencing the British Open semifinals scene near the beginning of the movie. “It’s like a little easter egg. Nobody knows about that.”
As for how the Uncut Gems director got Robert to lend his voice to the ping pong flick, which earned Timothée the Golden Globe for Best Male Actor in a Musical or Comedy Film?
“He came and watched some stuff and I was like, ‘I don’t know any British people,’” Josh continued. “So, he’s the umpire.”
Robert’s cameo in Marty Supreme marks his first collaboration with Josh since he starred in the 2017 movie Good Time, which Josh and his brother Benny Safdie codirected. The partnership came about because Robert, eager to work with them, reached out over email and set up a meeting.
“It was just kind of agreed that we would do something,” Robert told Vulture in 2017 of their first in-person conversation. “It wasn’t about any particular project or anything. But I remember leaving the meeting and thinking, ‘Yeah.’”
The 39-year-old added at the time, “Usually a meeting about a movie is just with the director. And you’re kind of trying to impress them and they’re trying to impress you. So, to have it with two people, it was more like entering a show.”
And the vibes were exactly what Robert—dad to a 22-month-old daughter with fiancée Suki Waterhouse—was looking for.

“That’s kind of what I wanted,” he continued. “I knew that to get to a certain level of energy that I wanted, you have to commit to somebody else’s world. And it seemed like they had a self-contained world that they were a part of, that they weren’t just trying to make a movie or whatever. But it felt like an entire environment you could go into.”
