Gwyneth Paltrow is just trying to help.
While on set for their upcoming film Marty Supreme, the Oscar winner and wellness goddess noticed that her costar Timothée Chalamet might benefit from some of her sage wisdom. But her inclination toward altruism backfired.
“In Marty Supreme, Timothée has pockmarks, and they made his eyes beady with contacts and glasses,” she explained on Tuesday’s episode of The Run-Through with Vogue podcast. “In real life, he has beautiful skin. He made a comment, and I was like, ‘Oh, you can do micro-needling for that.’ He’s like, ‘This is makeup.’ I was like, ‘Oh, s—.'”

“The makeup was so good that I thought he had little acne scars,” Paltrow continued. “Anyway, I think it would be interesting to one day do something like that.”
In the upcoming awards hopeful from director Josh Safdie, Paltrow plays a character not unlike some of the most venerated in her back catalog. Her Kay Stone is a wealthy socialite and fading movie star who forges an unlikely connection with the younger ping-pong phenom played by Chalamet.
Paltrow mused that Chalamet’s physical transformation for the role actually inspired her, noting in response to a question about what kind of role she hasn’t yet but would like to play, “I think it would be really interesting to do something around a story of an older woman. I’m really interested in how women age and how they regard themselves as they age. I look forward to playing older parts for sure.”

The famously unbothered actress previously shared that she gained respect for Chalamet on their first-ever collaboration over the fact that he is “[going] out with a young woman who has two kids,” recalling, “I respect it. I think it’s kind of punk rock.”
Paltrow had a laugh when she realized Chalamet’s current partner isn’t just “a young woman.”
“My point is I didn’t know [it was] Kylie Jenner,” she joked.
Marty Supreme is Safdie’s first solo venture since he and brother Benny Safdie decided to take a hiatus from their long and fruitful creative partnership. The film is officially described as the story of “a young man with a dream no one respects” who “goes to hell and back in pursuit of greatness.”
Alongside Chalamet and Paltrow, the film costars I Love LA breakout Odessa A’zion, Shark Tank star Kevin O’Leary, Tyler “The Creator” Okonma, filmmaker Abel Ferrara, and Fran Drescher.
