Hollywood star Timothée Chalamet may soon take on a new transformative role — this time as world-renowned skincare expert Ole Henriksen in the upcoming biopic The Glowing.
Unveiled at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, The Glowing will follow the fascinating life and legacy of Henriksen, often called the world’s first celebrity facialist. Known for his radiant skincare line and A-list clientele including Sylvester Stallone and Barbra Streisand, Henriksen’s story is set to blend glamour with the real-life challenges he faced along the way.
Ole Henriksen Wants Timothée in the Lead
In a recent interview with Hello!, Henriksen revealed that Timothée Chalamet is his top choice to portray him in the biopic. The skincare icon praised the Wonka actor’s talent, especially his ability to take on complex characters like Bob Dylan, and noted their physical similarities.
“Timothée is petite and expressive — just like I was,” Henriksen shared. He acknowledged that Chalamet may be expensive to cast but believes he is worth every dollar. The upcoming film aims to portray not just Henriksen’s fame and success, but also the personal hurdles he overcame to become a global beauty icon.
Henriksen, the mastermind behind the bestselling Banana Bright Eye Crème, has become a household name in skincare. His signature “Ole Glow” has been trusted by Hollywood royalty for decades.
Chalamet’s Personal Life in the Spotlight
While his professional journey continues to soar, Timothée Chalamet is also grabbing attention for his rumored relationship with Kylie Jenner. Recent reports suggest the actor has allegedly moved in with the beauty mogul, sparking speculation about a possible engagement.
A source close to the couple claimed that Chalamet spends most of his free time at Kylie’s residence, fueling more rumors about their deepening relationship.
With Dune, Wonka, and now The Glowing potentially on his resume, Chalamet is carving a legacy of versatility. Taking on a role that explores the world of beauty and personal reinvention may be his next major cinematic triumph.
