Kylie Jenner has been extremely secretive when it comes to her romance with A-list actor Timothee Chalamet.
But fans of the billionaire makeup mogul, 26, are convinced they saw a nod to Chalamet, 29, in a new ‘sneak peek’ for Hulu’s The Kardashians.
The clip, which was posted on Wednesday, begins with Kylie standing in front of a desert backdrop while wearing a skin-tight nude hooded dress.
The look was reminiscent of the futuristic suits worn by Chalamet and his co-stars in the hit sci-fi film Dune 2.
The Denis Villeneuve-directed sequel is the highest-grossing film of 2024 and sees Chalamet top the chart as supreme warrior Paul Atreides.
‘Kylie in her Dune era…’ commented one fan, who received over 600 likes from others who agreed.

The warrior-yet-minimalist look that defines the ‘dune core’ aesthetic rose to popularity even before the sequel hit theaters on March 1.
Chalamet, Zendaya and Florence Pugh put the trend front and center as they hit the red carpet in elevated versions of the outfits seen in the Dune universe.
‘Dune-core’ is characterized by its combination of earthy and neutral colors, its functionality and its elegant draping with a sporty touch.
Kylie’s sand-toned dress ticks all the boxes with its flattering ruching, halter neckline, and attached hood.
It’s a clear departure from the typical sexy mom-of-two style, which often consists of bikini tops, PVC dresses and abs-baring catsuits.
Timothee and Kylie’s unlikely romance reportedly began in January 2023 after the duo met at a Paris Fashion Week event.
Weeks before they met, Kylie had broken up with Travis Scott, 33, after five years of dating on and off. They share two children: daughter Stormi, five, and son Aire, two.
Kylie and Timothee did not publicly confirm their romance until September 2023, when they were seen kissing at a Beyonce concert in Los Angeles.
In the clip, Kylie spoke to the camera while wearing an outfit that appeared to be inspired by Chalamet’s hit film, Dune 2.

In the following months, Kylie and Timothee became the subject of breakup and pregnancy speculation.
Pregnancy rumors took off last month when comedian Daniel Tosh, 48, made the claim on his Tosh Show podcast.
‘There’s something crazy here. I went to the grocery store in Malibu and was talking to an employee there. I try to avoid it, but I was talking to this guy and I said, “Why were you guys closed yesterday?”
“Well, I’m not supposed to discuss that,” Tosh claims the worker responded, alleging that the Kardashian-Jenner crew was filming the Season 5 finale of their show in the store.
‘Spoiler alert. This random person at the grocery store tells me that they rented out the entire store, closed it, and then acted like they were buying groceries.
‘This was the scene that apparently happened: Kylie reveals that she is pregnant again with Timothee’s child. What a bombshell,’ she added.
Tosh added that he wasn’t validating the story: “I’m not verifying anything.” This is what a grocery store employee in Malibu told me.’
Timothee and Kylie have reportedly been dating since early 2023 and showed off their PDA during the 2024 Golden Globes in January (pictured).

Kylie debunked pregnancy speculation by showing off her flat stomach on Instagram last month.
But a source said Us weekly that Kylie and Timothee are not expecting a child together despite the rumors.
“Kylie is not pregnant,” sources close to the outlet told the outlet in April.
Sources also confirmed that the couple are “still dating” and are in a long-distance relationship.
Kylie currently lives in California with her children, while Timothee has been busy filming A Complete Unknown, a biopic about Bob Dylan, in New York City and New Jersey.
‘Kylie and Timothee have stayed in touch while he was in [Manhattan] “We’re filming and we’re still together,” the source explained.
Shortly after, Kylie debunked the pregnancy rumors by showing off her obviously flat belly on Instagram.
Although things are going well between the couple, Kylie opted to attend the 2024 Met Gala without Timothee on Monday, May 6.
Next week, the highly anticipated fifth season of Hulu’s The Kardashians will premiere on Thursday, May 23.
Kylie shares daughter Stormi Webster, six, and son Aire Webster, two, with ex-boyfriend Travis Scott.
