Timothée Chalamet's Oscar-Nominated 'Marty Supreme' Sets HBO Max Streaming Date

Timothée Chalamet's awards-season contender Marty Supreme is heading to streaming. HBO Max announced Friday that the Josh Safdie-directed A24 sports drama will begin streaming April 24, following its theatrical release on Christmas Day 2025.

The Film

Marty Supreme centers on Marty Mauser (Chalamet), an ambitious table tennis player in 1950s New York City willing to do whatever it takes to become a world champion. The cast includes Gwyneth Paltrow, Tyler the Creator, Fran Drescher, and Odessa A'zion. Safdie co-wrote the script with frequent collaborator Ronald Bronstein.

Awards Season Rollercoaster

The film earned nine Academy Award nominations including Best Picture, Best Actor for Chalamet, Best Director, and Best Screenplay — but came up empty at Sunday's ceremony. Chalamet did take home a Golden Globe for his lead performance. The awards run wasn't without controversy: Chalamet's comment that he wouldn't want to be involved with an art form "no one cares about," citing ballet and opera as examples, was referenced multiple times during the Oscar telecast.

Our Take

Nine nominations and zero wins is a brutal Oscars outcome, but it doesn't diminish the film. THR's David Rooney called Marty Supreme "a kinetic portrait of a life in perpetual motion" and "a wonder" — and now a much wider audience gets to judge for themselves. The April 24 date is smart positioning: close enough to awards buzz to benefit from curiosity, far enough from ceremony night to let the sting fade. Chalamet's controversial opera comments will be a footnote; the performance won't be.
