Timothée Chalamet took a break from filming his latest movie in New York City to say a big hello to his biggest fans … the ones who’d actually show up to, let alone participate in, a Timothée Chalamet look-alike contest.
Social media was abuzz on Sunday (October 27) after Chalamet made a surprise appearance to greet the contestants and attendees of the event, which began at 1 p.m. ET in the public park. The prize for the contest, which drew several contestants, was $50, but they also got the opportunity to meet their celebrity doppelganger as well.

Before he arrived, there were several contestants who had the audience doing double takes to see if they were in the presence of the real deal, with a man in a cap, suit, and mustache ultimately taking home the big check.
