On Saturday night, two superstars arrived at Fairfax High School’s basketball court to participate in a very special Vanity Fair Scene Selection Live. Adam Sandler and Timothée Chalamet, previously seen shooting hoops together out in New York City, greeted a rapturous audience of students and guild voters who had patiently lined up in the pouring rain to see these two friends discuss their work. Sandler, who stars in Netflix’s Jay Kelly, and Chalamet, who stars in A24’s Marty Supreme, first met on the set of Jason Reitman’s Men, Women & Children, though Chalamet’s scenes were eventually cut from the final film. The two discussed Saturday Night Live, working with director Josh Safdie, and their careers—and though a full video of the conversation won’t be online for a few weeks, you can get a rundown of the entire event through John Ross’s write-up.
