In theaters, Timothée Chalamet stars as Bob Dylan — performing and singing all of the songs live — in the biopic A Complete Unknown; Nicholas Hoult, Bill Skarsgård, Lily-Rose Depp, Aaron Taylor-Johnsonand Willem Dafoe star in the horror movie Nosferatu; and British singer Robbie Williams is the subject of the biopic Better Man.
