On Thursday, Zendaya flaunted her edgy look when she arrived in Los Angeles to film Jimmy Kimmel Live! alongside her Dune 2 co-stars Florence Pugh and Timothée Chalamet.
The 27-year-old Euphoria star dazzled in an all-black leather outfit that revealed a hint of her toned stomach as she arrived at the El Capitan Entertainment Centre in Hollywood to support the eagerly awaited film.
She wore a long-sleeved black jacket with the lowest button left undone, tight black slacks, and boots that accentuated her model figure.
Florence, 28, looked chic in a white slip dress with a top fashioned after a crochet pattern. She wore it with black coat and white heels.
Timothée, 28, the boyfriend of Kylie Jenner, matched Zendaya’s black ensemble by donning black boots, a black hooded vest, and leather leggings with silver zippers.
Zendaya had her dark hair combed back for the television appearance. She used bronze makeup, which included matte lipstick and a hint of eyeshadow, to draw attention to her features.
Florence had her blonde hair done into a small quiff and parted on the side.
The Oppenheimer star accessorized the ensemble with large gold earrings and black shades.
Pugh, a recent addition to the Dune cast, will portray the Emperor’s daughter, Princess Irulan.
The duke of House Atreides, Paul Atreides, will once again be portrayed by Chalamet. In the meantime, Zendaya makes a comeback as Chani, a young Fremen lady who wins Paul over.
Austin Butler, their 32-year-old co-star, showed there too, decked up in a black coat, button-up shirt, matching slacks, and boots.

Butler, a recent hire, will portray Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen, the young nephew of Baron Harkonnen and the intended heir to the throne of Arrakis.
Sting has previously portrayed the character in David Lynch’s Dune from 1984.
The cast also stars Javier Bardem, Christopher Walken, Stellan Skarsgard, Dave Bautista, Lea Seydoux, Rebecca Ferguson, and Zendaya, Chalamet, Pugh, and Butler.
Due to the SAG-AFTRA actors’ strike, Dune: Part Two was initially scheduled for release on October 20, 2023, but it was later moved back to November 17 and then March 15, 2024.
The movie is now scheduled to open in theaters on March 1, 2024, following several delays.
Denis Villeneuve is directing the sci-fi follow-up, which Warner Bros. Film Group and Legendary Entertainment are co-producing.
Frank Herbert’s 1965 novel of the same name served as the inspiration for both Part One and Part Two of Dune.
“Paul faces a choice between the fate of the known universe and the love of his life, as he endeavors to prevent a terrible future only he can foresee,” is the official logline for Dune: Part 2.
Director Alejandro Jodorowsky spearheaded one of the earliest attempts to turn the novel into a motion picture. Despite the project’s eventual cancellation, Jodorowsky’s 2013 film Dune features footage from the project.
After that, David Lynch directed a version of Dune that was met with harsh criticism when it was first released in 1984.
In 2016, Villeneuve joined involved with the project’s latest iterations, and Dune: Part One was eventually published in 2021.
Critics gave the film favorable reviews, and as of right now, Rotten Tomatoes gives it an 83% rating.
In addition, Dune: Part One took home six of the ten Academy Awards for which it was nominated, including Best Original Score, Best Cinematography, and Best Sound.
Though it began production just days after Dune: Part One, the feature film’s sequel was not officially approved until after the first movie’s premiere.
Budapest and Abu Dhabi were among the places where the feature was filmed between July and December of last year.
Additionally, Villeneuve has stated that he would like to helm the third film in the series, Dune Messiah, which is based on Herbert’s 1969 novel.
