The movie takes place in 1950s New York City and centers on Marty Mauser, a talented table tennis player striving for success. It depicts his struggles, both in his personal life and in the fiercely competitive world of ping pong.
Timothée Chalamet stars as Marty, alongside Gwyneth Paltrow as Kay Stone and Odessa A’zion as Rachel. Fran Drescher plays Marty’s mother, and Tyler Okonma, Kevin O’Leary, and Abel Ferrara appear in other important roles. The film also includes cameos from well-known personalities like Philippe Petit, Penn Jillette, Tracy McGrady, and Kemba Walker.
I’ve always known that Moshe Safdie loves table tennis. It’s something that comes from his family – his grandparents and the community they were a part of back in New York’s Lower East Side really sparked his interest.
The idea for the film came about in 2018 when his wife and producer, Sara Rossein, shared Marty Reisman’s autobiography, The Money Player, with him. At the New York Film Festival, Safdie explained that he wrote Marty Supreme specifically with Timothée Chalamet in mind, believing the role captured his unique qualities. Chalamet started ping pong training that year and even did many of his own stunts for the movie.
Principal photography started in New York City on September 23, 2024, and finished on December 5, 2024. The filmmakers then traveled to Japan in February 2025 to shoot extra scenes. Darius Khondji was the cinematographer, using 35mm film, and Jack Fisk, a highly experienced production designer, oversaw the visual look of the film.
Timothée Chalamet worked with ping pong professionals Diego Schaaf and Olympic athlete Wei Wang to prepare for the role. To subtly alter his look in certain shots, the director had him wear glasses with contact lenses hidden underneath.
