Timothée Chalamet dances to Soulja Boy’s “Crank That” during a Marty Supreme promotional appearance at CCXP

Timothée Chalamet performed the dance to Soulja Boy’s “Crank That” during a promotional appearance for his upcoming film Marty Supreme at the CCXP entertainment convention in São Paulo, Brazil.

The 29-year-old actor took the stage on December 5, where crowd footage shared on X showed him arriving in a green and yellow pullover before launching into the dance that became widely associated with the 2007 track.

Audience members reacted loudly as Chalamet began the routine. In a separate clip, he removed his pullover to reveal a grey hoodie with “USA” printed on the back, which he threw to a fan. He then removed the hoodie and tossed it to another attendee, continuing the interaction in a white tank top as he energised the crowd.

The moment follows previous instances in which Chalamet has performed the dance. In December 2024, he appeared on The Broski Report podcast with Brittany Broski, where he demonstrated the steps and performed the routine alongside the host.

His interest in dance has been noted in past projects, including comments from his Dune co-star Zendaya in 2021 about the pair holding dance sessions during filming. He also incorporated dance sequences into his portrayal of Willy Wonka in the 2023 film Wonka.

Chalamet has discussed having an early interest in music. In 2012, he performed as his rap alter-ego Lil Timmy Tim at an event at LaGuardia High School, where he was a student.

The actor is currently promoting Marty Supreme, directed by Josh Safdie. He stars as Marty Mauser, a ping-pong player whose ambitions form the centre of the story.

The character is loosely inspired by Marty Reisman, the American table tennis figure who died in 2012. The film is scheduled for release on December 25.
