Zendaya talks about the attention her kissing scenes have garnered
During the interview, Jake Hamilton asked her, “Do you feel like, as a society, people have forgotten that an actor kissing another actor is literally a part of your job? Or are they using it as an excuse to get you to talk about kissing?”
Zendaya replied to this question by thanking him for bringing that up because she thought the same. She added, “I’m like, this is weird! This is weird!”
We will get to see Zendaya in a more mature role
Recently, Zendaya told Vogue magazine that it was nice to play a more mature character than the high schooler character she is mostly known for playing. She revealed, “I’m always in a high school somewhere.” She added, “And, mind you, I never went to high school.”
The Euphoria actor revealed to the outlet that taking up her role in Challengers and breaking away from the high school role was refreshing. She continued, “And it was also kind of scary, because I was like, ‘I hope people buy me as my own age, or maybe a little bit older, because I have friends that have kids, or are having kids.’”
Her fans are eager to see her performance in the upcoming movie. The movie also features Mike Faist and Josh O’Connor. It is directed by Luca Guadagnino, who also directed the critically acclaimed movie, Call Me By Your Name.
Meanwhile, this year is turning out to be huge for the Euphoria star as her movie Dune: Part Two was released, earlier this. Zendaya had a pivotal role and the film turned out to be a huge hit globally, just like its first part which was released in 2021.
