Timothée Chalamet is one step closer to fully becoming Bob Dylan.
The 29-year-old, who recently won best actor at the 2025 SAG Awards for his role in the legendary singer’s biopic A Complete Unknown, was spotted out in Los Angeles wearing what appeared to be a piece from Dylan’s wardrobe.
On Thursday, Feb. 27, Chalamet was sitting courtside as the Lakers took on the Minnesota Timberwolves in a very familiar looking leather jacket while he watched the game with French actor Stéphane Bak.
He was also seen socializing with Corey Gamble, the longtime partner of his girlfriend Kylie Jenner’s mom, Kris Jenner.
According to Vogue, the vintage jacket was once owned by the Nobel Prize-winning music icon, 83.
Chalamet’s stylist, Taylor McNeill, seemingly confirmed the reporting by reposting the article to her Instagram Stories on Friday, Feb. 28.
Dylan previously wore the piece to a Grammys afterparty in February 1980, but more famously when he performed live with the late Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in 1985 at the FarmAid music festival.
The Dune star added his own twist by pairing it with a black top, black pants, black Nikes and a diamond necklace.
For this year’s SAG Awards, he wore a Brat-coded, rocker approved all-black look, with a pop of bright green for his shirt — and a silver bolo necklace. It was a look also inspired by Dylan.
Chalamet’s date that evening was his mom, Nicole Flender. Though she was undeniably proud of her son for his big win that evening, he later shared what she told him after he accepted his award.
“She said, ‘Don’t forget to fold your laundry,’ and I was like, ‘Really? This moment? Really? This moment I just won this award, and I’m 29 years old and you’re chastising me still,'” the Wonka star said in an interview with Extra.
“She might have won me this,” he added of his mother’s support. “I grew up in an actors’ building in New York, so I know she really pushed everyone she knew to hit that vote button.”
In addition to channeling Dylan’s style for the iconic role, Chalamet also went through some physical changes as well.

“Something we haven’t really talked about, I also put on 20 pounds because…believe it or not, I was thinner than the guy, you know?” he revealed while speaking to NPR’s All Things Considered for a Jan. 20 appearance.
