Timothee Chalamet is owning up to what Jennifer Lawrence described as her ‘most annoying day ever’ on the set of 2021’s Don’t Look Up.
Lawrence, 33, appeared on Late Night with Stephen Colbert in early December 2021, where she said both Chalamet, 27, and Leonardo DiCaprio, 48, ‘drove me crazy that day.’
She added that working with Chalamet and DiCaprio, ‘was the most annoying day of my life, I’ll tell you that.’
The actor revealed he spent 24 days in Boston filming his role of Yule in Don’t Look Up, 14 in quarantine and 10 days filming, adding he had far too much energy as he got to the set.

The actor added, ‘I exploded out of my room’ after his mandated COVID-19 quarantine had ended.
Chalamet played Yule in the film, a young shoplifter who strikes up a relationship with Lawrence’s Kate Dibiasky.
Lawrence added on her Late Night appearance nearly two years ago that, ‘Timothée was just excited to be out of the house, I think it was his first scene.’
She added, ‘And Leo had picked the song that was playing in the car and was just like, “You know, this song is about blah, blah, blah.”‘
‘I don’t know. I just remember being in absolute misery that day. But they’re very nice,’ she said of Leo and Timothee on the talk show, which she appeared on while expecting her first child.
‘It was hell. Well, Timothée, I was so excited, he’s such a talented actor. But in a two-shot, you know, I’m 31 and, I mean I wasn’t this fat but I’m fatter than Timothée Chalamet,’ she said of the slim actor.
‘That was harrowing. It’s harrowing to see yourself…. Just us in those two-shots, it’s like, “Who’s that? Your coach?”‘ Lawrence joked.

Chalamet will next be seen in the highly-anticipated prequel Wonka, playing iconic choclate factory owner Willy Wonka in the film, hitting theaters December 15.
His other big film that was slated for 2023 – Dune Part Two – was recently pushed to March 15, 2024 due to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike.
He’s also slated to play Bob Dylan in the biopic A Complete Unknown, which is in pre-production.
Lawrence most recently starred in the R-rated comedy No Hard Feelings and she has East of Eden and Burial Rights coming soon.
