I think you’re making it sound more difficult than it actually is. Just think of all the musical theatre actors out there. Plenty of people can project humor and intelligence into their singing. The fact that Chalamet won’t even have to sound good but just act while singing takes away a challenge. I’m not saying playing Bob Dylan will be easy, but a good actor like Chalamet can definitely get it done.
those “plenty of people” didn’t become bob dylan for a reason, there’s a difference between singing to showcase humor and intelligence, and singing that naturally reflects the person behind the voice that possesses those qualities, subtle difference but it could make or break the performance.
although if we’re sticking to the theme of the thread, it’s not like voters are that particular about the quality of musical sequences, so if everything else works out for him, he’ll get his biopic oscar in time to break brody’s record even if he doesn’t get the singing right
