Narrative
At the Newport Folk Festival in 1965, a young Bob Dylan shakes up his act in the folk music scene by going electric and presenting rock as the voice of a generation — defining one of the most transformative moments in 20th-century music. Collider’s October 2020 interview with cinematographer Phedon Papamichael revealed that the Bob Dylan film project would be put on the back burner due to the recently announced COVID precautions studios are taking. And because of that, Papamichael and director James Mangold are moving on to other projects. “I don’t think it’s dead,” he said. Papamichael said of the Chalamet-led biopic: “But it’s hard to pull off in the COVID era because it’s all in small clubs with a lot of extras in period costume, so you’re going to have a good time. I have a lot of hair and makeup. So our next project is Indiana Jones 5 (2022), actually. Mangold is doing that.”
