Please can someone explain the attraction / obsession with this young man? I just don’t get it?!

im sure he’s a nice person but I find him really really unattractive and also do not get the appeal at all!

Watch him in The King. You may change your mind.

In fact The King was the one movie I’d say where his youth and diminutive stature worked for him. Brilliant casting.

I don’t know why there is all this hate for Kylie Jenner? She’s a grade A hottie. Why wouldn’t he want her on his arm?

Needmorelego · 19/12/2025 07:59

@Screamingabdabz I thought he'd split with Kylie Jenner?
I actually know nothing about her other than she has some strange relatives 😂

DeathBanana · 19/12/2025 08:04

Lisa Simpson holds the answer

'Grade a hottie'? Behave. She has more plastic in her than a landfill site.

Loved him as Bob Dylan and have been charmed by him in interviews for this ping pong film. He seems very intelligent and interested in others as well as charming and polite.

Lifestran · 19/12/2025 08:15

Great actor, I also love that he is very open about wanting to be the best at his craft and be one of the greats. His interviews are always very interesting

I think he visually has the same cinematic magnetism / visually arresting properties / je ne sais pas as Kirsten Stewart but is a better actor
... so basically a more talented male version of her.

You're spot on, it never occured to me before but he and Kirsten Stewart could be siblings.
Ive always found her utterly gorgeous and magnetic

Leo800 · 19/12/2025 08:32

He’s a very good actor.

I can’t take him seriously because he’s in a relationship with Kylie Jenner.

I didn’t know this, and I know zero about her, but it seems weirdly off-brand for him. He seems more ‘Manic Pixie Dream Girl’ type.

Yeah i agree. It does seem like a weird match. I imagine him more with someone like Winona Ruder in her youth

LoudSnoringDog · 19/12/2025 09:04

One of his earliest gfs was Madonna’s daughter, Lola. I believe that they went to high school together, he’s also dated Johnny Depps/ Vanessa’s paradis daughter (lily?)

xmasstress12 · 19/12/2025 09:04

the reason some don’t see him with Kylie proves the power of PR. He’s been “packaged” as an intelligent tortured soul who takes his craft seriously which is at odds with what the Kardashian’s represent. It’s just PR people, just like Britney wasn’t sweet & innocent!

I agree, although I actually think the relationship with Kylie is likely fake. Hollywood is a highly inauthentic place, although you do get genuine people there.

Beautiful in Dune, but just like Harry Styles IMO, he's nothing without the hair.

I don’t think that’s necessarily true. I mean, I don’t know the man, obviously, but his film choices alone make him something different to the usual cookie-cutter male starlet type — he makes interesting choices.

Some women like macho men.

Some women like the sensitive, studious type.

Some women like gangsters.

Some women like long haired, blushing pretty boys.

Timothy seems like he’s gentle and would whisper sweet nothings in French in your ear and quote the classics. That’s attractive to a lot of women.

This post has just made me play extracts from A Complete Unknown whilst working. It's a masterclass.

Sinittaadancers · 19/12/2025 11:45

He’s using the Kardashian’s PR clout - I don’t think he’d ever heard of Susan Boyle before he was fed that line by his team. He’s determined to get an Oscar and it makes him look a bit more genuine which he needs since he’s been associated with the K’s - which doesn’t really fit with the sensitive, intelligent indie persona he was previously portraying.

he is a genuinely very good actor though

Have you seen the photos of him shagging Eiza Gonzales in a hot tub? He is just a frat boy, not a sensitive poet

Do sensitive poets not indulge?

Those photos were gross

WinWhenTheyreSinging · 19/12/2025 11:52

Not my bag physically (I'm sure he'd be devastated😂) - I like my men more 'lived in' - but interesting, intelligent, different and a fabulous actor.
