Zendaya and Robert Pattinson are all set to share the screen space for the first time in the 2025 movie The Drama. The film was announced last year in August and, since then, fans have been waiting to see the two stars working together. While the movie is a romance comedy with some drama, Pattinson allegedly went "crazy" for three days and his co-star helped him.

For the unversed, Kristoffer Borgli has written and directed the movie which also cast Mamoudou Athie and Alana Haim in important roles.

The Twilight star has now been making headlines for opening up about his co-star who helped him ease his overthinking. During an interview with French publication Premiere, Pattinson admitted to overthinking about his character in The Drama.

The Batman actor somehow revealed that the story of the upcoming movie may have some unexpected twists and turns. Those who are aware of Borgli's previous works have been talking about how he usually adds some plot twists in his movies. He is known for helming Dream Scenario as well as the dark comedy horror Sick of Myself.

During his interaction with the publication, Robert Pattinson revealed that he had a scene with Zendaya which was driving him crazy. He added how he was desperately looking for the meaning of the scene and analyzing it. However, when he found it all troubling, he rang up the Euphoria star and the latter helped him calm down. He said,

"We had a scene together that was driving me crazy. I was desperately looking for its meaning, writing pages and pages of textual analysis. I ended up calling Zendaya the night before shooting the scene."

As he shared his troubles with her, Zendaya "very calmly" made him understand the line. Pattinson therefore realised that it did not have any hidden meaning.

"I shared my doubts with her, I spoke for two hours, and after a while, very calmly, she made me understand that the line just said what it meant to say, that there was no hidden meaning.”

He also admitted:

"And there I was going crazy for three days."

The Drama is allegedly set to release in 2025. However, its makers have not announced a date yet.


Zendaya and Robert Pattinson to work together again in The Odyssey?

The Drama is not the only movie in which Robert Pattinson and Zendaya will be seen working together. The two have allegedly signed Christopher Nolan's next movie The Odyssey.

Reportedly based on the story of Odysseus, the movie will feature the journey of the legendary Greek King's returning home after the Trojan War.

Besides Pattinson and Zendaya, the movie has a huge star cast which also reportedly includes Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Charlize Theron, and more.
