In 1961, an unknown 19-year-old Bob Dylan arrives in New York City with his guitar. He cultivates relationships with Greenwich Village music icons during his meteoric rise, culminating in a groundbreaking performance that resonates around the world. According to an October 2020 Collider interview with cinematographer Phedon Papamichael, the recently announced COVID precautions by studios are putting the Bob Dylan film project on the back burner; Papamichael and director James Mangold are reportedly moving on to other projects. “I don’t think he’s dead,” Papamichael said of the Chalamet-led biopic, “but it’s hard to do in the age of COVID because it’s all in small clubs, with a lot of extras in period costumes, so there’s a lot. So our next project is “Indiana Jones 5” (2022).
