This suggestion sparked diverse reactions among fans, with some endorsing Chalamet's suitability given his profile as an American-French actor, aligning well with Leclerc's Monégasque background and French fluency.
Leclerc, who joined Ferrari in 2019 and made headlines with his 2024 Monaco Grand Prix victory, enjoys substantial fan support but acknowledges no concrete plans for a film about his life and career. Despite Leclerc's achievements in motorsport, including previous wins in GP3 and the Formula 2 championship, opinions varied on the viability and appeal of a biopic centered on his racing journey thus far.
