ATP Best Supporting Actor Alexander Bublik hits Cannes red carpet
The entertaining Kazakh has arguably been auditioning for the silver screen his entire career, and suited up for the annual film festival ahead of Roland Garros.
WATCH: Bublik treated fans to a comic thriller at the Internazionali BNl d'Italia against Casper Ruud.
Here’s everything everywere all at once: The 76th Annual Cannes Film Festival gave tennis fans a familiar face on its red carpet as Alexander Bublik suited up ahead of his return to Roland Garros.
Bublik is yet to make his star turn on the silver screen, but given his entertaining antics and propensity for delivering unforgettable one-liners, it only feels like a matter of time before Hollywood—like Cannes—comes calling.
Earning a standing ovation from the Internazional BNL d’Italia crowd despite enduring a narrow defeat to Casper Ruud at the Foro Italico, Bublik also flexed his acting muscles at the Mutua Madrid Open when he channeled John Travolta’s meme-worthy Pulp Fiction reaction against Holger Rune.
While he does his own stunts, Bublik often saves his most impressive improv for the net, where he often breaks into an impromptu stand-up set that leaves his opponents in stitches.
Here’s to tennis’ own Top Gun Maverick, who may yet win one of the sport’s biggest awards.
