A24 just dropped the official trailer for Marty Supreme, the sports comedy-drama led by Academy Award nominee Timothée Chalamet, fresh off a surprise New York Film Festival screening. Chalamet plays Marty Mauser, a young dreamer chasing big-time glory, with the film landing in theaters December 25, 2025.

A24 just dropped the first trailer for 'Marty Supreme,' a scrappy sports comedy-drama with Timothee Chalamet chasing greatness one blistering ping-pong rally at a time. It quietly popped up as a surprise screening at this year’s New York Film Festival and now it’s locked for a December 25, 2025 theatrical release. Yes, Christmas. Yes, table tennis. I’m into it.

"In the film, Marty Mauser, a young man with a dream no one respects, goes to hell and back in pursuit of greatness."

The trailer sets the tone fast: Chalamet plays Marty Mauser, a hyper-focused table tennis diehard who refuses to accept that the world doesn’t take his sport (or him) seriously.

The character is loosely modeled on real-life champ Marty Reisman, who made his name hustling games around New York City for cash before becoming a legend. You see glints of that swagger here — the trick shots, the mind games, the showmanship — and the kind of chaos you expect when someone decides to bet everything on a dream most people think is ridiculous.

We also get a proper look at the ensemble, which is an eye-catching mix that ranges from Oscar-winners to cult icons to a rapper-turned-director-turned-actor. The whole thing has that familiar Safdie hum — grit, momentum, and a lead character barreling through every warning sign like it’s just another serve to return.
