At the 1965 Newport Folk Festival, a young Bob Dylan transforms his folk act by going electric and singing rock as the voice of a generation — defining one of the most seminal moments in 20th-century music. According to an October 2020 Collider interview with cinematographer Phedon Papamichael, the Bob Dylan film project will be put on hold due to the studios’ recently announced COVID-related precautions. Because of that, Papamichael and director James Mangold are moving on to other projects. “I don’t think he’s dead,” Papamichael said of the Chalamet-led biopic: “But in the era of Covid-19, it’s tough because it’s all in small clubs with a lot of extras in period costumes, so ‘I have a lot of hair and makeup.’ So our next project is Indiana Jones 5 (2022). Mangold is doing that.
