2024 has certainly been a rollercoaster year for Timothée Chalamet. First, he premiered the highly anticipated “Dune: Part Two” in March, and now he’s gearing up for the release of the Bob Dylan biopic “A Complete Unknown.” It’s safe to say that the actor is at the peak of his career.
This is especially true because both his performance as Paul Atreides in the action epic and his portrayal of the “Like a Rolling Stone” songwriter are predicted to make a big splash at the 2025 Oscars, possibly earning him his first Academy Award. But in the meantime, he recently attended another competition, where he was the center of attention!
To the great surprise of his fans, Chalamet made an appearance at his own lookalike contest in Lower Manhattan on Sunday. Naturally, his presence became the highlight of the event, but many are still curious about its outcome: Who won? Meet Miles Mitchell.

While the contest to find Timothée Chalamet’s twin had many excellent contenders, it was Miles Mitchell who had the honor of taking home the title of the best lookalike. His strategy was to dress as Wonka, complete with a briefcase full of candy that he tossed to the crowd.
According to The Guardian, Mitchell is a Staten Island resident and college senior. The 21-year-old, as shared on his Instagram account @miles.mitchell27, has three main passions: fashion, traveling, and playing the piano. His social media is a testament to this, with photos featuring diverse locations around the world, each showcasing a different outfit. From Mexico to Rome, he seems to have been everywhere.

The most frequently updated highlights are for South Korea and Thailand, but he also shares details of his adventures in Japan, Taiwan, Morocco, Italy, Ireland, and more.
Naturally, Mitchell took to Instagram to celebrate his victory in the Timothée Chalamet lookalike contest, changing his profile picture to one of him in costume and uploading photos and videos from the event. Now, he’s aiming to make a name for himself, requesting that media outlets credit him by name when sharing his photos.
