Zendaya and Robert Pattinson appeared in the latest Vogue 'Off the Cuff' installment, chatting about their upcoming film The Drama and more. The actors, who star together in three films this year, shared details on their first encounter and future roles. Excitement around The Drama has grown amid Zendaya's standout press-tour style.
Zendaya and Robert Pattinson, costars in The Drama—the first of three films they share this year—sat down for Vogue's 'Off the Cuff' series. They covered topics from the zillennial–Gen Z divide to Bluetooth headphones and Cardi B concerts. Pattinson described The Drama as a 'commercial comedy! It’s fun for the whole family!,' though Zendaya suggested he take on a pure comedy role next. The pair now count themselves as best friends, despite an unmemorable first meeting. Zendaya recalled their meet-cute during a FaceTime call: Pattinson was shooting Batman while she filmed Euphoria. 'You were on FaceTime with a friend of ours, and I said hi to you, and you had no reaction,' she said. Pattinson claimed no memory of the moment. In lighter moments, Pattinson hummed the theme song from one of his biggest movies, though the specific film went unspoiled. He insisted he has never lied in his life, prompting Zendaya's quick retort: 'Well, girl, that’s a lie.' The interview also touched on Pattinson's preparation for his role as Charlie in The Drama, Zendaya's last experience with 'the ick,' and the value of open talks before marriage.
