Dylan film star Edward Norton made this popular Jersey Shore coffee shop part of his daily routine

Actor Edward Norton may have hinted to a Jersey Shore coffee shop how demanding working on a film set can be.

The actor has been spotted several times at Coffee Tyme, a cafe off Washington Street in Cape May, ordering three shots of espresso in pumpkin chai.

Norton is among the cast of “A Complete Unknown,” a biopic of Bob Dylan starring Timothée Chalamet as the legendary musician. The film has been filming in various parts of New Jersey since March.

Norton has starred in a collection of films in the late-1990s, including 2008′s “The Incredible Hulk,” appearing beside actress Liv Tyler. He portrays folk singer Pete Seegar in the upcoming film.

Photos of the star posing for photos with Coffee Tyme staff were shared online by the cafe, saying that he favors three espresso shots. He also, according to the cafe, shared his love of surfing with the owners.

The Cape May scenes depict the 1965 Newport Folk Festival in Rhode Island, where Dylan first performed in public with an electric guitar, playing his then-new song “Like a Rolling Stone.” The song’s lyrics are the source of the film’s title – “How does it feel? / To be without a home / Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone.”

Production, according to an earlier call for background actors, was slated to film in Cape May from May 12-16.
