Zendaya BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Over the past few days, Zendaya has had her hands in several major news cycles spanning film, television, and personal life, confirming her status as one of the most talked-about stars in entertainment right now. The most intriguing development is her high-profile collaboration with Robert Pattinson in The Drama, a romantic comedy directed by Kristoffer Borgli for A24, set for release April 3, 2026. The film, about a couple whose relationship falls into chaos just before their wedding, not only pairs Zendaya with Pattinson for the first time on screen but also features a cast including Mamoudou Athie and Alana Haim. According to Numéro, filming has been intense, with Pattinson even describing a late-night call to Zendaya to debate the meaning of a particularly challenging scene, only for her to calmly clarify the script’s intent. The Drama is just one of at least five major projects Zendaya has in motion for 2026, as reported by The Economic Times, including Denis Villeneuve’s awaited Dune: Messiah.
The personal beat this week featured a rare public appearance with fiancé Tom Holland in London, as noted by AOL Entertainment. The couple, both 29, stepped out together on October 16, marking one of their infrequent public sightings since announcing their engagement, and signaling business as usual after Holland’s recent hospitalization for a stunt injury. Their outing was low-key but caught media attention, reinforcing public fascination with their union.
Zendaya’s future with Euphoria ignited a social media panic after the show’s official Instagram account posted a Season 3 cast list on October 17 that, surprisingly, omitted Zendaya’s name—as well as those of Sydney Sweeney and Hunter Schafer. The Times of India and The Economic Times covered the resulting confusion and online backlash, with fans speculating she might be leaving the series. However, those fears appear unfounded: according to The Economic Times, HBO confirmed back in February that Zendaya and other original cast members will return for the spring 2026 premiere, and Variety and The Hollywood Reporter have backed this up. The Instagram post is now seen as either a misfire or a tease for new additions; sources now report that Zendaya was photographed on set in March, and her continued involvement remains official.
On the business front, Zendaya’s slate for 2026—The Drama, Dune: Messiah, possibly Euphoria, and reportedly three more unannounced projects—positions her for an even busier, more prominent year than ever before. No significant new fashion or endorsement news broke in the last few days, but her existing deals and public presence keep her continually in the conversation.
Finally, Zendaya remains active on social, but in these past days, there was no major personal posting revealed—the internet chatter was all about her absence from the Euphoria roster, not about content she herself shared. All in all, this week underlines Zendaya’s rare ability to command headlines without lifting a finger, whether through her work, her relationship, or even things she didn’t do.
