Hollywood Star Meets Polish Ski Jumping Legend
Timothée Chalamet, one of Hollywood’s brightest talents, has become a global icon thanks to his stellar performances in films like Call Me by Your Name and Dune. With two Oscar nominations already under his belt—one for his breakout role as Elio Perlman and another for portraying Bob Dylan in the biopic Completely Unknown—Chalamet has captivated audiences with his charm and versatility. However, in Poland, the actor recently found fame for an entirely different reason. A photo of Chalamet sporting a cap and light mustache during a red carpet event led to a wave of internet memes comparing him to legendary Polish ski jumper Adam Małysz in his younger years.
Timothee Malyszet, to nawet nie jest on 🙈

A Meme Phenomenon Sweeps the Internet
The comparisons went viral, with Polish social media platforms flooded by memes blending the two icons. Posts humorously speculated about Chalamet preparing for a role as Małysz, quipping whether he could also ski jump 151.5 meters or enjoyed Małysz’s signature banana sandwich snack. Even Eurosport joined the fun, posting witty remarks like “Timothée Malyszet.” Fans embraced the joke so much that T-shirts featuring Chalamet’s photo with the caption “This Is Adam Małysz” surfaced online. This unexpected cultural crossover showcases how humor can bridge seemingly unrelated worlds, uniting fans of cinema and sports in shared laughter.
