Call Me By Your Name's Timothée Chalamet announced that he donated his salary from his work on the upcoming Woody Allen film A Rainy Day in New Yorkon Tuesday, but the actor said he refrained from talking about why he worked on the movie, citing contractual obligations.
"I have been asked in a few recent interviews about my decision to work on a film with Woody Allen last summer. I'm not able to answer the question directly because of contractual obligations." Chalamet wrote in a note shared to Instagram.
However, HuffPost reported Friday that it obtained Chalamet's contract and no such contractual obligations exist, assuming the contract HuffPost received was legitimate.

HuffPost obtained a copy of Chalamet’s contract from a source with access to it, and a review of the document reveals that Chalamet is under no contractual obligation to remain silent about his thoughts with respect to Allen, nor does it prevent him from offering support to Dylan Farrow, which raises the question of why he chose to make such a statement and why he is hesitant to comment on Allen.
HuffPost did not clarify who it obtained the contract from, which could only be a very limited number of people, so take this with a requisite grain or bucket of salt.
Chalamet, who was nominated for a Golden Globe for his starring role in Call Me By Your Name, came under criticism for working with Allen, who has been accused of sexual assault by his adoptive daughter Dylan Farrow. Farrow has recently called out people in Hollywood who worked with her father while also claiming to support the Time's Up campaign.
In a response to the backlash against Allen, Chalamet said in an Instagram post that he donated his salary from the upcoming Allen movie to the Time's Up campaign, the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), and New York's LGBT Center.
Another actor on A Rainy Day in New York, Rebecca Hall, spoke out on Instagram in support of Farrow, saying she regretted her decision to work on the film, which seems to go against Chalamet's claims of contractual obligations.
Additionally, HuffPost reported that two anonymous actors accused Chalamet of trying to remain centrist on the issue of Allen ahead of the Screen Actors Guild Awards, potentially appeasing award voters who could decide whether he wins the award for Best Actor.
Chalamet's representatives supported the actor's claim, HuffPost reported, saying that, "a clause in the standard SAG agreement ... that was attached to Chalamet’s contract prevents him from speaking publicly."
Chalamet's representatives did not immediately respond to Mashable's request for clarification on Chalamet's claims.
