A Twitter user had an eventful flight after she realized that the passenger next to her was French-American actor Timothée Chalamet.
About 30 minutes into the flight, the Twitter user, Alankrutha, initiated a conversation with the person sitting next to her and said, “hey you look exactly like timothee Chalamet.”
Instead of confirming her suspicion, the 23-year-old actor replied, “I get that a lot.”
It wasn’t until 1.5 hours into the flight that she finally had the courage to spill it out and say “I KNOW U R TIMOTHEE.”
Turns out, it was in fact him.
She then listed down the questions she asked him including asking about Steve Carell, who Chalamet worked with in the 2018 movie “Beautiful Boy.”

Alankrutha then revealed how awesome Chalamet is when he asked more about her.
They then talked about “The Office” and what their favorite episode was.
Alankrutha was blown away by Chalamet’s sincerity and curiosity about her own life.
Interestingly enough, Chalamet said that she was the one and only person that recognized him throughout the flight.
Something else she discovered was that he can devour in-flight pretzels and orange juice in less than 20 seconds.
Alankrutha also shared a screenshot of her message that she sent to her friend before she could confirm that it was Chalamet sitting next to her.
Of course, the flight had to end eventually.
But before that, she shared a selfie that she took with the actor.
There was only one thing that she forgot to ask Chalamet…
