At the 2026 Critics Choice Awards, Marty Supreme earned Timothée Chalamet the Best Actor award.
The film is a sports comedy-drama directed by Josh Safdie, who co-wrote it with Ronald Bronstein and Safdie’s frequent collaborator, Nathan Fielder. Chalamet plays Marty Mauser, a fictional table-tennis player whose ambitions drive the story.
Marty Supreme was among the 2025 films recognized during the 31st annual ceremony. Chalamet’s win was one of the ceremony’s major acting prizes, alongside Jessie Buckley’s Best Actress award for Hamnet and the supporting acting awards for Jacob Elordi and Amy Madigan.
The title can be confused with a real-life sports biography because the film is inspired partly by table-tennis history, but Marty Mauser is a fictional character. The award recognized Chalamet’s performance, not a real athlete or the film’s director.
