Luca Guadagnino’s cannibal romance film ‘Bones and All’ had its red carpet event in Milan on Saturday, but it eventually had to be shut down by the police because a lot of Timothée Chalamet’s fans showed up in the hopes catching a glimpse of the actor.
The large crowd outside the Space Cinema Odeon prompted safety concerns, so the local police decided to shut down the red carpet event. Thereafter, the premiere of ‘Bones and All’ continued with a more limited capacity.

As per Variety, the members of the press were turned away, and photos of the attendees were taken inside the venue. Furthermore, Chalamet did not do any press, and the screening of the film was held as planned.
Despite the red carpet being shut down, the ‘Call Me by Your Name’ actor alongside his co-star Taylor Russell, and filmmaker Guadagnino showed up and waved at fans from a balcony at the event in Milan.
