Hugh Grant<\/a> was “nervous” to meet Timothee Chalamet.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Hugh Grant was nervous to meet Timothee Chalamet<\/p>\n

The 63-year-old actor appears alongside ‘Call Me By Your Name’ star Timothee, 27, in the new film ‘Wonka’ but admitted that he was apprehensive to work with his young co-star – who has already been nominated for an Oscar and received critical acclaim since starting his career seven years ago – because he thought things had gone “a bit too well” for him.<\/p>\n

He told People: “I was a bit nervous of him. I don’t like people who are too successful, and I thought his career had gone a bit too well!”<\/p>\n

But the ‘Bridget Jones’ Diary’ actor revealed that things turned out well in the end between himself and Timothee, as he revealed that his co-star would often “gossip” with him about those around them on set.<\/p>\n

He said: “But I did warm to him, he gave me good gossip!”<\/p>\n

\nHowever, the ‘Love Actually’ star – who plays the Oompa-Loompa in the prequel to Roald Dahl’s classic novel ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ – appears in CGI form and had to record all of his lines off set in a nearby tent.<\/p>\n

\nHe said: “I couldn’t be on the set because I’m too big. But I was in a tent just nearby with my helmet on with all the cameras. A highly complicated business!”<\/p>\n

\nDespite not being face-to-face on set, director Paul King explained that he wanted “as much chemistry” as possible between the pair to form a comedy double act.<\/p>\n

\nHe said: “They have a kind of banter through the movie and they’re sort of slowly becoming a double act as the movie goes on, and that’s something I think is very hard to do if you’re never in the same room together.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
