Like us, Call Me by Your Name star Timothée Chalamet is a big superhero fan!

During a red carpet interview with Variety at the premiere of his latest Netflix project The King, the Oscar-nominated actor expressed his excitement about director Matt Reeves' upcoming Batman project starring none other than his co-star Robert Pattinson.

"I think it's going to be awesome. You know, I think it's going to be great," he said before he revealed how obsessed he was with Batman's sidekick Robin while growing up. When he was a kid, he even went so far as to tell people his name was Robin! (How cute is that?!)

Well as soon as Chalamet's stans found out about how much he loved DC's boy wonder, that got them thinking about how great he would be in that role if ever the opportunity presented itself!

\u201cI picked Timothee Chalamet out as my ideal Robin after his stint on Homeland back in 2012. 7 years later and I haven\u2019t changed my opinion. \n\nMake it happen, WB! I promise you...\u201d
