The battle of the doppelgängers is upon us.
In case you missed it over the weekend, a cheeky Timothée Chalamet lookalike contest took place in Lower Manhattan on Sunday, in which the “Wonka” star, 28, shocked everyone by showing up without notice.
The same day, an X user shared a poster announcing a Jeremy Allen White look-alike competition coming up next month. The poster features a photo of the “Bear” actor, 33, sporting a white tank top and leaning on a bicycle.
According to the advertisement, the event will take place at the Washington Square Park Arch in New York City on Nov. 17 at 1 p.m.
While the prize for the Chalamet lookalike competition was $50, the White poster promises a gift of “2 packs of cigarettes + 7 day metrocard” for whoever shows up looking the most like the Brooklyn-born actor.
The prize is a reference to White’s anxiety-stricken character in the Emmy-winning series “The Bear.” White plays Chicago-based chef Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto, who is fighting his cigarette vice.
X users reacted over the hilarity of the forthcoming event and had major feelings about the prizes.
