Timothée Chalamet slammed for ‘disrespectful’ joke about late President Jimmy Carter on ‘SNL’

Timothée Chalamet was called out for a “disrespectful” joke about late President Jimmy Carter during his “Saturday Night Live” appearance.

In a workout sketch, the “Wonka” star portrayed bungee instructor Nathaniel Latrine and walked Heidi Gardner and her on-screen boyfriend Michael Longfellow through exercises that were not for “the faint of heart.”

While in character, Chalamet instructed the class to perform a series of moves mimicking flying and swimming before shouting, “Jimmy Carter!”

Immediately, the “Little Women” star, 29, and the class attendees dropped to appear lifeless while dangling on their bungee cords.

Audience members gasped at the joke which was not received well by some watching at home.

“Someone’s going to hell for that one,” one person commented on the clip of the sketch posted to YouTube.

“Too soon,” another chimed in, as a third added, “The Jimmy Carter bit was wild.”

Others took to X to share their opinions, with one user writing, “Was funny until that Jimmy Carter line. Totally disrespectful and out of line. And yes I have a sense of humor and love the show but that was just horrible and too soon … I hope his family didn’t see that.”

A fifth critic also referred to the joke as “out of line.”

“That sketch was actually pretty funny until the Jimmy Carter line,” another added.

Reps for “SNL” weren’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.

On Dec. 29, Carter died at the age of 100 in Plains, Ga., after about two years in hospice care.

The 39th president’s funeral was attended by President Trump, first lady Melania Trump, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former President Bill Clinton.

Chamalet, meanwhile, also poked fun at himself on “SNL” mocking his award show losses over the past few years.

After the show, the “Call Me By Your Name” star stepped out for the afterparty at The Pool in New York City with girlfriend Kylie Jenner.
