Even though she is just 28 years old, Zendaya really has it all. She has a stellar filmography to her name, with her latest venture, Challengers, turning out to be quite the phenomenon. Her role in Euphoria needs no introduction. Not to mention, the two Emmy Awards she has to her name.
While all of them hold a special place in her life, one of the things she really cherishes is her relationship with Tom Holland. The couple have been going strong for quite some time now, and if what Zendaya has revealed about their relationship is anything to go by, they are one of the ‘it couples’ in town.
Zendaya and Tom Holland are going strong
In an interview with Vanity Fair, Zendaya got candid about the dynamic she and beau Tom Holland share. Having sparked dating rumors ever since first appearing in Spider-Man: Homecoming, the couple would try to keep the relationship under wraps for some time.
The paparazzi could read between the lines though. While many realised what their equation was ever since they attended the Oscars together in 2018, no doubts were left when they shared their first on-screen kiss the following year.
With the couple featuring together off-camera and in Spider-Man: No Way Home and Spider-Man: Far From Home, fans would begin to fall in awe of the couple, little by little. No wonder when she sat down for a conversation with Vanity Fair, they couldn’t help but ask her about a elephant in the room.
While it is not uncommon for stars to date each other, shooting with each other is not for every celebrity couple. But that doesn’t include these two – who don’t even break a sweat.
Zendaya finds acting with Tom Holland like ‘second nature’
In her interview, Zendaya revealed how shooting the Spider-Man movies with Tom Holland felt. She said,
“Not really. It’s actually strangely comfortable. It’s like second nature, if anything. You feel extra safe with the person you’re acting beside. I love working with him.”
She continued,
“He’s so talented, and so passionate about what he does. He always gives things one thousand percent, even if he’s absolutely worn down. I really appreciate that about him. It feels pretty normal. That’s how we met. Literally, at a chemistry read.”
Some start to the relationship it was. The couple have not turned back ever since. They are a part of the rare class of couples who face zero hiccups while co-starring. That makes them the part of an illustrious list, including the likes of Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz, who have featured together in a sleuth of movies.
Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn also pop in one’s mind, having co-starred in multiple films. While things didn’t turn out the way they would have wanted them to, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have also shot movies together.
With another Spider-Man movie and the upcoming Nolan film on the line, Zendaya and Tom Holland are all set to take on the mantle of ‘the couple in town’ who have got no problem in sticking together.
