Zendaya and Timothée Chalamet admire each other’s projects
In an interview with People magazine back in 2021, they shared their opinions on each other’s projects. Timothy said: “Obviously Euphoria just blew me away. It was so crazy because when we read each other in Dune, Dennis… maybe or Sam Levison, I felt that way about him and he was like, “Holy, she’s in.” it’s a show that’s coming out, it’s already there.” The actor appreciated the performance of the then 25-year-old girl in the role of Euphoria. He said: “And obviously Zendaya’s Rue is incredible and insightful and just what a wonderful performance. He said that when he walked out of his hotel in Budapest, he saw people wearing makeup that was clearly inspired by the Sam Levinson show, which made him realize what a huge impact the series had on audiences around the world.
Zendaya, on the other hand, also didn’t mince words in praising her co-star. She admitted that she could “go on” about Chalamet. She is particularly impressed by his “creativity” and somehow he always puts on “wonderful performances”.
Zendaya appreciated Timothée Chalamet’s approach to choosing projects
Zendaya said Chalamet is just “looking for the good.” The former Disney star appreciated the fact that it wasn’t pretentious. She added: “I even felt it on set, that there was no pretentiousness in the way he chose things or wanted to do something. It has nothing to do with saying, “Oh, this is a good career move.” the actor finds projects that seem “good” to him and everything that is good for his “soul as an actor.”
Meanwhile, that summer they appeared on the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival, where the actors and their film were met with great critical acclaim.
