Marty Supreme follows the life of Marty Mauser, played by Chalamet. Descriptions of the film are kept brief, stating that the film follows Mauser doing whatever he can to chase his passions, even with no one believing in him. 

The trailer reveals the nature of the plot to audiences, showing that the story revolves around ping pong. Early reports even indicate that the film is loosely based on Marty Reisman, a popular figure from the table tennis world.
