Zendaya, 28, has received critical acclaim for her roles in Dune, Spider-Man and Euphoria. 

But the actress said there were times when her Hollywood career didn’t go as planned. 

She mentioned a past project she had been involved with, which unfortunately didn’t come to fruition. It was scheduled for filming, but a month prior, things unraveled and the project collapsed.

After receiving the script for Euphoria, it turned out to be filmed within its scheduled timeframe. This left me exclaiming, “Oh my God, thank goodness that film disintegrated!” However, at the moment, we were expressing frustration, saying, “S**t.” Looking back, there was a purpose behind all of it. I tend to follow my instincts.

In a natural, easy-to-understand manner: Zendaya bagged two Lead Actress Emmys for playing Rue in Euphoria, and in March, she returned to the role of Rue in Dune.

The actress has also become one of the front runners in the fashion industry. 

Almost as well-known as the movies she acts in, the striking fashion choices on the red carpet by the star from Hollywood, aided by her stylist Law Roach, have become quite renowned.

During the photo session, Zendaya confidently displayed her unique fashion flair by wearing a daring purple suit without a bra, followed by a beautiful pastel pink ensemble and matching footwear from Alaïa. The look was accentuated with exquisite Bulgari jewelry.

Elsewhere in the interview, Zendaya gave a rare insight into her romance with Tom Holland, 28. 

The couple began dating in 2021 after meeting on the set of Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2016. 

She expressed: ‘I adore collaborating with him. His skills are exceptional, and his enthusiasm for his work is remarkable. He consistently puts in his all, even when he’s exhausted. I greatly value this quality of his. It seems quite ordinary to me. That’s how we first connected. In fact, it was during a chemistry reading.’

In a striking display, Nicole flaunts her timeless physique in a sleek, black velvet Schiaparelli corset embellished with fringes.

The actress, aged 57, is seizing a significant milestone in her professional journey with the provocative movie titled “Babygirl,” that came after the premiere of “The Perfect Couple.

In an erotic film, the actress shares the screen with Harris Dickinson, who is known for his role as The Iron Claw and is 28 years old. She was awarded Best Actress at the Venice Film Festival for her performance.

The film sees Nicole play a high-powered married company boss who falls for a kinky young intern.

Regarding her reasons for accepting the role, she stated, “I’m willing to assume risks if they are perceived as such. If the risks are daring, then I am ready to take on those challenges.

Nicole also expressed her sadness her late mother, Janelle, couldn’t see her recent success. 

In September, she regretfully had to depart from the Venice Film Festival shortly before being honored with the Best Actress award for her performance in Babygirl, following the sad news of her mother’s passing at 84 years old.

She said: ‘Her essence has been pretty much the driving force through my whole life. I wish she could have seen this part of it. She was very excited to see Babygirl and she was excited to see The Perfect Couple too, but she didn’t get to see either of those.’ 

Radhika Jones, the editor in chief, announced excitedly about the special issue: “Here’s a surprise! This is the Vanity Fair Hollywood Issue, arriving earlier than you anticipated! For the past 30 years, we have traditionally published this flagship issue around Oscar time. However, this year, we bring it to you a bit ahead of schedule!

Consider this upcoming Hollywood event, now scheduled for a new release, as the start of an extended red carpet journey. This path leads from the critics’ accolades and Golden Globe awards, proceeding through guild and independent film honors, right up to the grandest night in the industry (and, needless to say, the Vanity Fair Oscar Party).

Vanity Fair’s Hollywood issue is on newsstands November 26.
