Timotheé Chalamet has broken a record held for 45 years with his back-to-back roles in Wonka and Dune: Part Two.As reported by ScreenRant, Chalamet became the first actor since John Travolta to star in the top two highest domestic-grossing films within a span of eight months. Wonka became a box office hit over the holiday period, taking in over $200 million domestically from a budget that was just north of $100 million. The Paul King-directed movie also earned another $430 million internationally, bringing Wonka’s total to over $630 million. Meanwhile, Dune: Part Two has earned over $400 million in a little over two weeks since its release, meaning that Chalamet-led films have taken in over $1 billion in recent months.The success of Chalamet’s films in recent months is even more impressive when considering that neither Wonka nor Dune were part of the Marvel or DC franchises. Chalamet shared that his decision not to join a superhero franchise was in part influenced by Leonardo DiCaprio. In a recent interview, Chalamet said: “Well, Leonardo DiCaprio said to me, ‘No superhero movies, no hard drugs.’ Which I thought was very good [advice]. I follow them both!”
