New York, 1961. An unknown 19-year-old named Bob Dylan arrives with his guitar. He forges relationships with Greenwich Village musical icons on 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 Bob Dylan film project was set to be put on the back burner due to newly released COVID precautions being taken by studios. And because of that, Papamichael and director James Mangold are moving on to other projects. “I don’t think it’s dead,” Papamichael said of the Chalamet-starring biopic, “but it’s hard to pull off in a COVID era because it’s all in small clubs with a lot of extras in period costume, so you have a lot of hair and makeup. So, our next project is Indiana Jones 5 (2022), actually.” Mangold is doing that.
