To prove it, he shared an email exchange with the Oscar-nominated actor last year where he praised his performance in the David Mamet play Henry Johnson.

"Absolutely blown away by your work the other night. What a fantastic play. I hope you guys take it to New York. And I hope this is the beginning of your work on stage and not an anomaly!" Chalamet wrote to LaBeouf in his email.

LaBeouf replied to the Dune star, "Thank you doggy / Every blessing to you / Fun watching you evolve / Take ownership / Bang bang."

In his caption, LaBeouf quoted a line from a poem, "If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken, twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools."

He added, "Timothée Chalamet is doing better work than anyone alive - we been good."

LaBeouf offered his take on Chalamet's speech, which made some fans wonder whether he was being complimentary or shady to the Oscar nominee.
