Actor Timothee Chalamet is ready to play Bob Dylan on the big screen and he will be doing his own singing. Director James Mangold teased his upcoming movie in a new interview with Collider during the Star Wars Celebration in London, reports Variety.

He was asked if the `Bones and All` actor would sing and he answered: "Of course!"

The `Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny` director talked about the moment in time the film will take place, which he expects to start filming in August.

"It`s such an amazing time in American culture and the story of Bob - a young 19-year-old Bob Dylan coming to New York with like two dollars in his pocket and becoming a worldwide sensation within three years," Mangold told the publication.

"First being embraced into the family of folk music in New York and kind of outrunning them at a certain point as his star rises so beyond belief."
