Supreme Marty (Marty Supreme) is a 2025 American comedy film directed by Josh Safdie from a screenplay by Ronald Bronstein and Josh Safdie. The film is set to be released in the United States on December 25, 2025.
The film is a free artistic interpretation of the story of a legendary table tennis player, inspired by the real Marty Raisman, but in the form of a fictional character - Marty Mauser.
The film is set in the stylized atmosphere of the 1950s, a period when sports were still seen as a lower-class pastime, but for the character it was magic and destiny. The trailer exudes an ambitious tension: Marty claims that „the game fills stadiums abroad“ and believes that one day he will be the cover hero of Wheaties. The soundtrack from the album Forever Young on Alphaville adds retro romance and a slight nostalgic touch.
Timothée Chalamet is in the image of Marty Mauser — with a confident, even slightly arrogant temperament, but also with an indomitable drive that goes beyond the stereotypes of his sport. Gwyneth Paltrow returns to the big screen as an actress who finds herself in an emotionally and physically complicated romance with the character—an iconic combination of sex appeal and retro style, enhanced by a short haircut and large brown-gold glasses. Their relationship has been described as „very, very sexual,“ but always with a touch of transactionalism, in which each gets exactly what they need from the other.
„Supreme Marty“" is not just a table tennis film — it examines dreams and ambition, intertwined with love, public expectation, and the desire for recognition in a world that doesn't believe in you. Safdie manages to achieve something between retro romance, hypnotic cinematography, and vibrant music — the result: a stylish, emotional, and extravagant story about fame, pure ambition, and its price.
