Even a superstar like Oscar nominee Timothée Chalamet wonders why he doesn’t yet have a role on an Apple TV+ project. In this tongue-in-cheek Apple TV+ spot directed by Tom Kuntz of MJZ for TBWAMedia Arts Lab, Chalamet is left to lament the lack of an Apple TV+ gig while surrounded by the successes of others on the platform spanning such fare as Best Picture Oscar winner CODA, the Emmy-celebrated Ted Lasso, as well as Causeway, Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me, Severance, Black Bird, Chief of War, and Martin Scorsese’s upcoming Killers of the Flower Moon.
Finally Chalamet is left to utter an old-fashioned Hollywood plea as a query to Apple: “Call me?”

The signal will continue indefinitely, traveling at the speed of light, and will surpass Voyager 1 in about 23 hours and 3 minutes.
To create awareness ahead of the mission, Jung von Matt created this humorous film that speculates on why “The Blue Danube” was not included on the Voyager Golden Records. The story revolves around the mission director (played by Adam... Read More
