Tyler, the Creator is reflecting on his feature film debut in Marty Supreme as the A24 film continues its theatrical run following its Christmas Day release. In a series of behind-the-scenes photos and messages shared with fans on social platforms, Tyler highlighted his experience working on the movie and encouraged audiences to watch it “on the big screen” rather than waiting for streaming, underscoring his enthusiasm for the project and the team behind it. Marty Supreme opened to strong box office numbers, becoming A24’s second-biggest debut with a cumulative $28.3 million in its opening frame, validating its placement as a major holiday release.

Tyler appears in the film as Wally, a taxi driver and sidekick to Timothée Chalamet’s Marty Mauser, marking his first substantial acting role. He balanced filming with ongoing music commitments, shooting his scenes shortly after the release of his album CHROMAKOPIA and pushing through challenging conditions such as cold weather and lack of sleep to complete his parts.

The rapper-turned-actor publicly expressed gratitude to director Josh Safdie for entrusting him with the role, stating that he’d show up for any part and describing the filming process as a “blast,” reflecting on both the challenges and excitement of stepping into acting. Remarks from Tyler at early festival screenings also highlighted his unexpected emotional response to the opportunity and his appreciation for the collaborative environment.

Marty Supreme continues to generate attention in both film and fan communities as audiences share reactions and interpretations online, and the movie’s strong critical reception and box office traction sustain its visibility during awards season and the broader cultural conversation around holiday releases.
