Timothée Chalamet, the star of Marty Supreme, and director Josh Safdie shared that they filmed a different ending showing what happened to the main character many years later, in the 1980s.
Safdie’s latest movie features Timothée Chalamet as Marty Mauser, a driven young man from New York City’s Lower East Side with dreams of becoming a professional ping pong player. The film, a sports drama set in the 1950s, was initially planned to end in the 1980s, according to both the director and Chalamet.
Safdie, who previously worked as the editor on Marty Supreme, co-wrote the movie with Ronald Bronstein. He told Variety that they were inspired by footage of a 1948 British Open table tennis match. One player in particular stood out to him, as Safdie felt the man’s restless and self-assured demeanor mirrored that of the film’s main character.
He remembers this energetic young man as restless and self-assured, but also very concerned with his appearance. The man reminded him of Marty.
The director explained that he initially wanted an 80s scene because he became really captivated by the Tears for Fears song “Everybody Wants to Rule the World.” He described playing the song alongside the footage and feeling like it perfectly fit the mood. His original idea for the ending involved Marty attending a concert with his granddaughter, listening to the song, and thinking about his life. Ultimately, though, they decided against using that ending.
He’s enjoying a Tears for Fears concert with his granddaughter, and the song ‘Everybody Wants to Rule the World’ is making him think about his younger days.
Timothée Chalamet told IndieWire about a deleted scene that was originally planned to play during the end credits. He explained that while they spent about six hours on makeup to age him up, they ultimately didn’t have time to film the scene. Chalamet expressed disappointment, noting that everything was ready to go, but it just didn’t happen.
The plan was to play a short scene after the credits, something that would clearly show what Marty’s future held. But we just didn’t have enough time to finish it. I actually spent a lot of effort – about six hours – creating realistic aging makeup, similar to what you see in “Oppenheimer,” but it ended up being unused. The whole thing was built, but never made it into the final cut.
Marty Supreme is playing in theaters now.
