Finn Wolfhard Says He Was Once Mistaken For Timothée Chalamet, But I’m Not Sure I See It

“He said, ‘Oh, my God. You’re Timothée Chalamet!’”

Do you think they look alike? Well, according to Finn, some people do — and they’ve straight up mistaken him for Timothée.

In a recent interview with Us Weekly, Finn recounted the time that Timothée heads misidentified him — and, like many modern awkward encounters, it all happened in the presence of an Uber.

“When I was in SoHo one time getting into an Uber with some friends, someone else had called an Uber to the same location and it was the same car, so we thought this was our Uber,” he explained.

“So as we’re getting in, this other group went into the car, and we were like, ‘Oh, sorry that’s your Uber.’ And then one of them looked at me, and he recognized me, and his eyes went wide.”

“I thought, ‘Oh no, he’s gonna recognize me from the show,’” Finn recalled, referring to (what else?) his starring role in Netflix‘s mega-hit Stranger Things.

“And he said, ‘Oh, my God. You’re Timothée Chalamet!’ And then I just started laughing with my friends, like, ‘Oh my God, that’s crazy that that just happened.’”

Far from being insulted, Finn says he was actually “relieved” to not be recognized as himself. “I was like, ‘Yes I am!’ It was really funny.”

If only there were some sort of lookalike contest that could’ve determined whether Finn actually resembles Timothée…

Here’s my question, though: Do you think they look similar? Furthermore, have you ever been misidentified as a celebrity? Go forth and spill in the comments.

We’ve also reached out to Finn’s reps for further comment — we’ll let you know if we hear back.
