Everyone Thinks The Shooter Who Killed United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson Looks Like A Popular Celebrity As New Security Photos Are Released
A popular celebrity is jokingly being named as a suspect following the shocking murder of Brian Thompson.
The United Healthcare CEO was gunned down in broad daylight on Wednesday morning, with an unidentified shooter approaching him before firing several rounds at his back outside of the midtown New York Hilton.
The act was caught on camera, and the NYPD has since released a photograph of the suspect in their efforts to ID him in the wake of the crime.
Lots of social media users thought he looked like actor Timothee Chalamet.
“Holy shit it’s Timothy Chalamet,” one wrote.
“I had a feeling he was good looking. 😅,” another joked.
“Was he in the Timothy chalamet look alike contest?” someone else asked.
“Call all the Timothy Chalamet look a like contest guys,” said a fourth.
“Timothee Chalamet a** tweaking,” someone else added.
“This would be a wild ending to the Timothee Chalamet look a like contest saga,” a user claimed.
We Can Rule Timothee Chalamet Out As Brian Thompson’s Killer
Timothee, 28, burst onto the scene as a teenager in 2012 in the television series ‘Homeland,’ going on to the big screen two years later with a role in ‘Men, Women & Children.’ He also featured in an episode of ‘Law & Order’ in 2009.
Since then, he has landed roles in several films, including ‘The King,’ ‘Don’t Look Up,” and ‘Wonka.’
While some people agree that the gunman from Wednesday’s incident bears a resemblance, we can’t imagine Chalamet transitioning from acting to real-life murder for hire.
