It seems like almost every huge movie coming out this year features Zendaya.
The former Disney Channel star’s latest film, The Drama, drops this weekend, and her year only gets busier from there. She’s also starring in Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, Dune: Part Three, and Spider-Man: Brand New Day–and that’s on top of Season three of Euphoria, which also comes out in 2026.
The actress has an insanely busy schedule this year, and because of that, she’s already planning to take a break.
On March 26, during an interview with her The Drama costar, Robert Pattinson, Zendaya said that she intends to take a breather from acting after all of her upcoming projects come out.
“I guess, you know, I just hope people don’t get sick of me,” Zendaya said to Fandango, letting out a giggle. “I really appreciate everyone who supports any of the movies or who supports my career in any kind of way. I’m deeply appreciative, and like I said, I just hope you guys don’t get sick of me this year because I’ll tell you what: after this, I’m disappearing for a little bit. I’m going to have to go into hiding for just a little bit.”
In The Drama, Zendaya and Pattinson play a soon-to-be-married couple whose relationship is put to the test, which hits theaters Friday, April 3. Both actors will also appear in The Odyssey, which debuts July 17, and in Dune: Part Three, which is set to release on Dec. 18.
On July 31, Z will be on the big screen opposite her real-life partner, Tom Holland, in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, their fourth Spider-Man movie together.
Even after working together on so many projects recently, Robert Pattinson only has great things to say about his co-star.
“I think she’s just so consistent in her professionalism with people, just so lovely to every single person — the crew, everyone.” the actor told People at the premiere of The Drama on March 17. “Even when we’re shooting in Boston on the street, everybody who comes by, she says hi, to saying hi to everyone. It’s unbelievable while still being so prepared and so into the job. I think it’d be really difficult to find someone who says a bad word about it.”
