A teaser trailer has been released for James Mangold‘s upcoming Bob Dylan biopic, A Complete Unknown.
BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN IS ON THE COVER OF THE NEW UNCUT – ORDER YOUR COPY HERE
The film stars Timothée Chalamet as Dylan – here’s some blurb about it.
Set in the influential New York music scene of the early 60s, A COMPLETE UNKNOWN follows 19-year-old Minnesota musician BOB DYLAN’s (Timothée Chalamet) meteoric rise as a folk singer to concert halls and the top of the charts – his songs and mystique becoming a worldwide sensation – culminating in his groundbreaking electric rock and roll performance at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965.
A Complete Unknown opens in the UK and Ireland in January 2025.
Uncut readers will, of course, remember Todd Haynes‘ I’m Not There, which Uncut described as “an audaciously prismatic portrait of Dylan wholly as contrary, confrontational, playful, provocative, unpredictable, enigmatic, allusive and often just as downright funny as its subject.”

Even Taylor Swift has to pay her respects to the king. After spotting Flavor Flav — aka “King Swiftie” — in the crowd at her first Eras Tour show in Hamburg, Germany, the 34-year-old pop star took a moment to give him a sweet shout-out from the stage.
In a video posted by the rapper on X Tuesday (July 23), Swift stands underneath a rainstorm of confetti while preparing to wrap up her three-hour-plus show at Volksparkstadion. She then locks eyes with him and excitedly mouths, “Flavor Flav!” before pointing at him with a big smile on her face.
“It’s the guy from Public Enemy also known as KING SWIFTIE,” Flav captioned the clip. “Coming straight to Germany to see me,!!! Shout out back to @taylorswift13 @taylornation13 and her team and family for having me,!!! ??????”
The 65-year-old hip-hop star also showed off a gift he seemingly received from another Swiftie in Germany: a name plate reading “Flavor Flav, King Swiftie.” “Ya boy appreciates the love and everything every Swiftie as ever given or sent me,,, ??” he wrote, sharing a video of him dancing with the present to Lady Gaga’s “Applause,” which was part of Swift’s pre-show music.
Flav’s trip to Hamburg comes more than a year after he attended his first Eras Tour show in Detroit, which he later revealed was the impetus of his Swiftiehood. “It started because I got a girl that lives in Detroit and her kids wanted to go to the Eras Tour concert,” he said on Hot 97’s Ebro in the Morning radio show in January. “So my manager got in contact with Taylor Swift’s people and they hooked me up some tickets and passes … a lot of these fans were coming up to me — these young kids, man, I’m surprised they even knew who I was! — and they start giving me these friendship bracelets.”
“Her fanbase embraced me, and I embraced them back,” he added at the time. “So, I went home and I started really listening to Taylor. I’m listening to her music, and I’m like, ‘Yo, this girl is dope!’ She’s writing a lot about experiences that she goes through in life, just like a Mary J. Blige.”
Flav has since been vocal in his love for Swift, and is quick to come to her defense, such as the time he dissed Jo Koy for making a jab at the pop star during his Golden Globes monologue. He’s snapped a few photos with the “Anti-Hero” singer at award shows, and attended her Eras Tour concert film premiere in October.

“Sorry For Being Sad is a conceptual journey following my experience navigating my early twenties,” vocalist Jamila Grace explains in a press statement. “It’s a coming of age story starting from when I moved 7 hrs away from my regional hometown of Corindi Beach to experiencing my first break-up and first mental health diagnosis with anxiety.”
She continues: “It centres heavily around how my anxiety diagnosis impacted experiences in love, friendship and growing up. It has been a super reflective process and really feels like a full circle experience.”
Behind the scenes, GRXCE have also been working on a short film that’s set to follow the EP’s release. Created and conceptualised by writer/director Sinead Campion, the Sorry For Being Sad film will be out just before the band kick off their national tour this August.

Thelma Plum is back to bless our ears with new music. The Meanjin-born Gamilaraay Woman and beloved singer-songwriter has today shared a heartfelt new single dubbed ‘Nobody’s Baby’, which sees her reflect on a bittersweet paradox from her youth.
“Nobody’s Baby is about the intersections of girlhood and growing up,” the artist explains in a press statement. “When I was younger I was kind of forced to grow up fairly quickly and it impacted me in ways I’m only discovering now that I am an actual adult.”
Thelma Plum – ‘Nobody’s Baby’
She continues: “I was always wanting to make myself seem older and more mature, and always trying to prove myself. I feel sad for the younger me but I am also proud of her. It’s complicated and I didn’t necessarily understand it all until I wrote this record, in particular this song. I still don’t really understand it but maybe Nobody’s Baby will help me explain that to you, and maybe me too.”
The single comes accompanied by a stunning music video directed by Studio Antics, which you can watch up above. Set against the backdrop of an equestrian club, the clip channels vintage glamour, capturing Thelma styled in Kourh, Marta Design and Nicol & Ford, with jewellery by Immortale.
