Timothée Chalamet, the talented actor, recently won his first Golden Globe. But for him, the year 2026 isn't just about acting. He has another dream that's equally important to him. Chalamet is a huge fan of Saint-Etienne, a famous soccer team in France. He hopes that by 2026, his team will make a big comeback. Saint-Etienne used to be one of the best teams in France, winning many championships in the 1960s and '70s. But things changed after a financial scandal in the 1980s. The team's performance dropped, and it lost its former glory.
Currently, Saint-Etienne is playing in the second tier of French soccer, called Ligue 2. They are doing well this season, sitting in fourth place. If they keep up this performance, they could earn a spot back in the top league, Ligue 1, next season. Chalamet's love for Saint-Etienne comes from his father, who also supported the team. The actor has often talked passionately about the team and its players. As for his acting career, Chalamet won his first Golden Globe for his role in "Marty Supreme. " This win comes after four previous nominations. He is now considered a strong contender for his first Oscar. So, while Chalamet is making waves in Hollywood, his heart is also with his beloved soccer team. He hopes that 2026 will be a perfect year for both his career and his team.
