Zendaya ‘grateful’ to be back at work

-

‘MALCOLM & Marie’ star Zendaya was happy to get back on set as she opened up about the huge difference­s between filming the Netflix movie and her upcoming role in the third ‘Spider-Man’ movie.

Speaking about the difference­s between the two sets, she said: “It is very different. On this film, everybody’s doing seven different jobs. [Spider-Man] is a very different kind of experience in the sense that there’s a lot going on, but they still manage to keep it safe. I’m grateful to be back at work.”

And Zendaya admitted it was a “very scary time for the world” when they filmed ‘Malcolm & Marie’ back in the summer, amid the coronaviru­s pandemic.

Speaking to Yahoo! Entertainm­ent, she added: “It was a very scary time for the world.

“We wanted to make this movie, but we first and foremost wanted to make it safely.”

Meanwhile, the 24-year-old actress previously confessed she was a “different character every day” in lockdown as she missed acting so much during lockdown.

She said: “Being in lockdown, I was definitely itching to do what I love because I hadn’t been able to do it for so long. I had already geared up and was in the headspace of a Season 2 [of ‘Euphoria’] and that wasn’t happening.

“I literally, while I was in quarantine, I would do this thing to keep me motivated. I live with my assistant, who’s also like a brother to me. I told him, ‘I’ll do some physical activity - I think it’s good for me.’

“I have a whole bunch of wigs, from many years of being on red carpets, and I would put on a different wig and be a different character every day, and put on this performanc­e for him for like an hour every day.”
