The years following Call Me By Your Name have been strange for everyone. Timothée Chalamet went off to become Hollywood’s latest Wonka. Armie Hammer spiraled into abuse allegations, including some involving cannibalism. Director Luca Guadagnino made a bizarre, beautiful, and tragic Suspiria remake. Finally reunited for the first time since CMBYN, Guadagnino and Chalamet have returned to make Bones And All, a sexy movie about cannibals, which clearly has nothing to do with their former associate. But that doesn’t mean they’ll be calling each other by your name any time soon.
“There is no hypothesis, so there is no movie,” Guadagnino told Variety. “It’s a wish and a desire, and I have not made up my mind about what would be the story.”
