Seems as though the two of them are riding hot right now. I wonder what the chances would be we actually see it.

0. After what happened to Tom Holland he doesn’t need to take these risks - also in general Timothee is highly respected artistically and doesn’t need to ‘prove’ anything the way Tom Holland might have been trying to. 

Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

Timmy does not have the chops for this, sorry.

The extra security required would be prohibitive. Keeping Club Chalamet at a safe distance would be a challenge.

If any other director said that in the press I'd say "yeah, okay, that'll never happen." But Lloyd is about as hot as you get right now, and he is clearly good with stars, which goes a long way. It would be a great pairing, though as always I'd prefer a star actor do a new play rather than the umpteenth HAMLET.

I would also like to see Timmy do a new play. He was supposed to do 4000 Miles in London in Summer 2020, so that makes me believe he would do a new work in the future. I wouldn't mind seeing him do Shakespeare, but would honestly prefer it in the park and not repeat what Othello is doing.
