A24 has released the first trailer for Marty Supreme, Josh Safdie’s 1950s-set sports dramedy starring Timothée Chalamet as a table tennis player chasing respect and recognition. The film marks Safdie’s first directorial effort since co-helming Uncut Gems with his brother Benny, and his first solo feature in more than a decade.

Chalamet plays Marty Mauser, a gifted but underestimated ping pong player whose ambitions take him on a turbulent journey toward greatness. Along the way, he begins an affair with a glamorous movie star, played by Gwyneth Paltrow, while navigating the personal and professional challenges of life on the road. The ensemble cast includes Fran Drescher as Marty’s mother, rapper Tyler, the Creator, magician Penn Jillette, Odessa A’zion, Shark Tank investor Kevin O’Leary, and filmmaker Abel Ferrara.

Co-written by Safdie and longtime collaborator Ronald Bronstein, Marty Supreme is a fictionalised retelling inspired by the life of Marty Reisman, a five-time World Table Tennis Championships bronze medalist who became a showman for the sport.

Chalamet reportedly underwent extensive training to capture the physicality and technique of a professional player. Cinematographer Darius Khondji noted earlier this year that the actor “wanted to be like a real [professional] ping pong player when he started shooting.”

The film is produced by Safdie, Bronstein, Eli Bush, Anthony Katagas, Chalamet, and A24.

Chalamet, who has previously praised the Safdie brothers’ “raw and untethered” approach to filmmaking, now takes center stage in one of the year’s most anticipated releases. Marty Supreme is set to open in theaters on December 25, positioning itself as both a holiday release and a potential awards contender.

Julio Rodriguez, Mariners (+500, BetMGM)

Our model sees value here despite Trevor Rogers’ impressive 1.44 ERA over 10 starts. Rogers had a 4+ ERA from 2022–2024, and some regression could be due. Julio is swinging a hot bat with 12 HRs in his last 36 games. He’s also been better on the road, hitting .292 with an .885 OPS and 15 of his 23 HRs away from home. Rogers has allowed 44 career home runs—41 of them to right-handed hitters. While he’s been tough on both sides, righties have had slightly more success. We set Rodríguez’s line at +350 to homer, but you can find the listed price at BetMGM:

Riley Greene, Tigers (+450, DraftKings)

Greene remains a model favorite, especially when facing right-handed pitching—he’s hit 25 of his 27 HRs against RHPs. He’s heating up again with 3 doubles and a HR in his last 3 games. Greene is 2-for-2 in his career against Shane Smith. While Smith has been a bright spot for the White Sox, he’s struggled recently with an 8.49 ERA and 7 HRs allowed over his last 6 games. We set Greene’s line close to +300 to homer, but you can find this price at DraftKings and also use the latest DraftKings bonus offer to get $200 in bonus bets instantly after your first wager of $5 or more and over $200 off NFL Sunday Ticket:

Brandon Lowe, Rays (+400, BetMGM)

Lowe has 4 HRs in his last 7 games and continues to mash right-handed pitching. He’s hitting .297 with a .909 OPS and 20 HRs against RHPs this season. On the road, he’s batting .314 with 11 HRs in just 43 games, and he’ll be in a hitter-friendly park in Sacramento. A’s starter JT Ginn has allowed an .875 OPS at home and 8 HRs in 8 home starts. We set Lowe’s line at +314 to homer, but you can find this price at BetMGM, where you can also get up to $1,500 in bonus bets back if your first bet loses:

LARAMIE – Cort Roberson, one of the revered “Blue-collar Boys” from the 2022 NCAA Tournament team, set the standard for Wyoming walk-on players.
 
“To do a thankless job for four years, well now I have a chance to thank him,” UW head coach Sundance Wicks said after surprising Roberson last season with a scholarship for his final semester. “That was a special moment to me because I know how much this place means to him, I know how much sacrifice he has put into this. And he’s seen the best and the worst of it here, but that’s what makes him a real guy because we never get out of this thing unscarred.
 
“Cort Roberson will forever be a foxhole guy for me.”
 
Talan Taylor, a freshman walk-on Wicks added to complete the Cowboys’ 2025-26 roster, has had conversations with Roberson and aspires to earn respect from his coaches and teammates while doing the dirty work to get the program back into the spotlight.
 
The 6-foot-4 guard grew up in Idaho Falls, Idaho, dreaming of playing in the Arena-Auditorium because his father and other family members are proud UW graduates.
 
“Getting the opportunity to be a walk-on here just knowing Sundance, I felt like I couldn’t pass that up because I love the University of Wyoming and the opportunity to wear the brown and gold has always been a special thing in my life,” Taylor said. “My dad grew up in Star Valley and I have family throughout the whole state. He raised me to love Wyoming and going to sporting events, so I’ve always just loved the Pokes.”
 
Former UW head coach Jeff Linder, who recruited Roberson, contacted Taylor before leaving for Texas Tech. During a visit to campus last season, Wicks told him to think about walking on with the Cowboys instead of pursing opportunities to play in junior college.
 
“I wanted a walk-on who has a deep-seeded love for the Cowboys more than anything else,” Wicks said. “Somebody who has got a past here. His dad and his uncle both got two degrees from the University of Wyoming. Talan has pictures of himself with Larry Nance Jr. He loves the Cowboys, and I wanted that to be in our locker room, just a love for Wyoming.”
 
Admittedly, Taylor was not feeling the love during the grueling eight weeks of summer workouts Wicks and his staff put the team through. He was injured during the early portion of the sessions and was still catching his breath long after the final sets of sprints at 7,220 feet.
 
Adjusting to the Mountain West level of play is an ongoing process for Taylor and other newcomers coming up from high school, junior college and Division II ranks.
 
“I’m doing everything with the team, and I feel just as much a part of it as everybody else. Sundance has made that clear and talked about how I have the same opportunity as everybody else. I’m just trying to prove myself like everybody else,” Taylor said. “I definitely have to improve level wise. (Last week) we did a running competition, and I need to be in better shape if I want the opportunity to show everything I’ve got. It’s a step up and these eight weeks have shown that, but I felt I’ve improved.”
 
Taylor averaged 14.0 points and 4.3 rebounds while leading Hillcrest High School to the Idaho state tournament title game. He recorded over 100 made 3-pointers in his final two high school seasons and shot 41 percent from behind the arc as a junior with 60 makes.
 
“You can always have an idea in your mind what it’s like, but until you get in the trenches it’s like Mike Tyson, everybody’s got a plan until I punch you in the face,” Wicks said of Taylor’s early transition from high school to UW. “I think this summer kind of punched Talan in the face a little bit and that’s a good thing because you learn how to handle hard. …
 
“One thing I know, if you have a deep seeded love for something it’s going to be really hard for you to hang those sneakers up. He’s got a real chance to be a Cort Roberson type in the future.”
