Taking to her Instagram Stories, Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousufzai posted photos of herself alongside Hollywood star Timothée Chalamet at the UK premiere of his Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown.
Putting up two photos alongside Chalamet and one from inside the screening of the film, Malala tagged Chalamet and co-star Edward Norton with a short and sweet caption, "Loved A Complete Unknown. Timothée Chalamet and Edward Norton were incredible."
Ending her final note with a laughing emoji, Malala added, "Nice to be connected to the music of my husband's generation."
Directed by James Mangold, and starring Chalamet in the lead role, A Complete Unknown charts the rise of the era-defining Bob Dylan during the 1960s. The film was nominated for three Golden Globes and has also received six nods in the recently released BAFTA Film Awards list of nominees. If Malala's words of praise are any indication, the film is set to be a hit with Dylan fans and critics alike.
Before her appearance at the UK premiere of A Complete Unknown, Malala was seen in Islamabad last weekend, where she attended a global summit on girls' education in Muslim countries.
"I'm truly honoured, overwhelmed and happy to be back in Pakistan," Malala told AFP upon arrival.
Ahead of the event, Malala had posted on X that she would be speaking about "protecting rights for all girls to go to school, and why leaders must hold the Taliban accountable for their crimes against Afghan women and girls."
Malala, who was attacked by the Taliban in 2012 while travelling on a school bus in the Swat Valley, was later evacuated to the UK. Since then, she has become a global advocate for girls' education, and at 17, she became the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize.
As part of her efforts in promoting girls' rights, Malala continues to exercise her voice in the arts. Last year, she joined forces with Afghan filmmaker Sahra Mani and Hollywood actor Jennifer Lawrence to serve as an executive producer on the Apple TV+ documentary Bread & Roses. The film, which explores themes of oppression and resilience, depicts an accurate representation of the lives of three Afghan women living under the Taliban regime.
"It's about the 20 million Afghan girls and women whose stories may not make it to our screens," said Malala in an interview with the BBC Asian Network at the time. "They're putting so much at risk. It's our time to be their sisters and be their supporters."
