Picture this: New York City in the 1950s. You’ve got Marty Mauser, a guy who earns his keep by selling shoes but lives for ping-pong. He’s also addicted to gambling and dreams of becoming the number one table tennis player ever. People might make fun of him, but he’s totally sure he’ll get there.

Marty’s journey is like a wild rollercoaster ride—full of scams, getting kicked out of games, and some big wins too. Along the way, two amazing women, Carlon and Rachel, come into his life and change everything for him. But Marty’s hunger for fame takes him down a dark path, leading to loss—money gone, love withering away, and that shot at glory slipping through his fingers.

Critics in America are loving it. Clayton Davis from Variety says it’s a mix of comedy, action, and sports that’s not easily labeled. David Canfield hails it as “grandiose and exhilarating,” while Jake Coyle from the Associated Press calls it “a madcap ode to those who struggle.”

The movie feels like something snatched right out of 1980s Hollywood with its punchy editing style. It’s not your typical biopic; more like an adrenaline blast that’ll keep you on your toes—a fresh take on good old American scam flicks.

It all centers around Marty Reisman’s story—a ping-pong superstar in the ’50s and ’60s who bagged over twenty titles nationally and internationally. He was bold, puzzlingly enigmatic—he’d bet on himself losing alongside bookies just to shake things up, often landing himself in hot water with suspensions.

Directed by New York native Josh Safdie…
Alright, let’s dive into this upcoming movie. So, there’s this director who’s going solo this time after he usually works with his brother. These guys are pretty famous for making some cool films, and recently they snagged a top award at a big festival with another film. Anyway, this new project of his is quite different from what he’s done before.

Joined by Ronald Bronstein who helped write and produce the whole thing, they’re cooking up something huge with A24. They’ve got $70 million riding on it—no small potatoes! They filmed in New York and also made a trip to Japan to shoot there too.

These folks have their eyes on the prize—2026 Oscar glory! The main actor Timothée Chalamet is diving deep into his character; he’s even busting out some serious skills at ping pong to get into the role. He’s like almost unrecognizable because of how much he’s acting like his character. It seems like everyone thinks he has a shot at another Oscar nomination, hoping third time’s the charm for him after coming close last year.

So yeah, it seems like everyone involved is really aiming high with this one. Can’t wait to see how it all pans out!
Okay, so here’s the scoop on Marty Supreme: It’s shaping up to be a super exciting film, especially with such an awesome cast and crew behind it. First off, we’ve got some intense competition brewing at the Golden Globes. Marty himself is in the race against his mentor, Leonardo DiCaprio. Talk about high stakes!

The film’s lineup is pretty star-studded. Gwyneth Paltrow steps back into the spotlight as a woman who strikes up a romance with young Marty. It’s been 27 years since her big Oscar win with *Shakespeare in Love*. And then there’s Odessa A’zion—she’s making waves and hoping to snag some awards buzz too.

Abel Ferrara returns not just behind the camera but also on screen after quite a break from acting. Plus, “Mr. Wonderful” Kevin O’Leary from Shark Tank jumps into movies for the first time alongside rapper Tyler, the Creator.

Visually, this movie’s got that classic touch—it’s shot on 35mm film by Darius Khondji and has these warm brown vibes all over it. The legendary Jack Fisk handled production design; he’s worked with all the Hollywood greats like Scorsese and Lynch. As for music—Daniel Lopatin is doing his thing again after those killer scores for *Good Time* and *Uncut Gems*.

Marty Supreme hits theaters right around Christmas in the U.S., aiming to make a big splash when everyone flocks to see films during holidays! Sneaky release strategy too—they’re dropping it earlier Stateside before bringing it over to Italy at the end of January to dodge other big releases like Avatar: Fire and Ashes. This one’s bound to rake in viewers! 🎬
