It does not in point of fact subject despite the fact that... As regardless of how big of a star The Call Me By Your Name and Dune actor is becoming, he was still incredibly nervous to meet Steve Carell.
Of path, the 2 ended up running in combination on the particularly underrated Beautiful Boy, a real tale a few father dealing with his son's addiction problems. If you haven't observed this surprising, gutwrenching, and wonderfully acted movie... be able to achieve this. It's worth your time.
Anyway, why was Timothee so nervous about meeting Steve? After all, Steve appears to be a lovely down-to-earth man. Totally approachable... But that wasn't the case for Timothee.

The film is in accordance with two books, one via David Sheff and some other by means of his son Nic, describing the real-life revel in these two went through when Nic was addicted to drugs.
Timothee claims that he auditioned for the role "many, many times". But it wasn't till the final callback that he if truth be told were given to meet Steve Carell.
"The first time I met Steve was like at a chemistry read. And I'm like a big -- I shouldn't even say a 'big' Office fan. I'm like the typical Office fan, which is like a big Office fan!" Timothee told the interviewer. "And I just had to temper that because I didn't want to weird him [out]."
This is as a result of he didn't want to lose out on this great section as a result of he gushed over Steve's past work. Timothee instructed the interviewer that if he had lost out on the work as a result of his work "sucked" or he simply wasn't proper for the function, that would've been high-quality.

Now that Timothee has received the position, filmed the section, and released the movie, he can come clean about his deep love for The Office, which is one in every of the many awesome low-key facts about him.
"He and Amy Ryan, who is also in The Office, they play Michael and Holly... they're my parents," Timothee said of his function in Beautiful Boy. Clearly, this pairing intended the world to him as it was virtually as though the casting was some form of twisted, real-life choice ending for the Office characters.
However, in real lifestyles, Steve and Amy had been trying to get the Beautiful Boy script made for ten years. So, it is smart that they were not keen on messing round with any Office superfans. The script intended one thing to them and they have been going to do just about anything to get it at the giant display screen.
"Every guy actor my age had gone in for it," Timothee mentioned of the audition procedure. At the end of the day, he went into the audition room a total of six times to land the position. Yeah, Steve and Amy weren't messing round with the casting.
The Movie Also Means Something To Timothee

Only after the film's liberate and doing press for it did Timothee understand the film's tonality and what it supposed to folks. It was then that he came to remember that he had just made an important movie concerning the anti-glorification of gear.

"I said this to you [Steve] at the time, if you remember, that is what I wanted to say or do when I -- but I felt like I had to act cool or something..."
In another interview with Heatworld, both Steve and Timothee publically praised each other's previous work. Steve stated that he wasn't accustomed to Timothee's work before Beautiful Boy. But now he's one in all Timothee's greatest fans.
We're pretty sure this means the arena to Timothee.
