Zendaya has once again captured the attention of fans and fashion enthusiasts with her recent appearance at the Dune: Part Two launch in London. The Spider-Man star's avant-garde ensemble drew comparisons to both the iconic C-3PO from Star Wars and the robot form of Maria in the influential 1927 film Metropolis. Designed by Thierry Mugler, Zendaya's metallic cyborg outfit certainly made a statement at the star-studded premiere, raising questions about which movie she was promoting and igniting a flurry of memes online.
While other notable figures attended the premiere of what early reactions are hailing as director Denis Villeneuve's 'masterpiece,' it is Zendaya who has dominated the headlines with her daring fashion choice. This attention may very well drive more viewers to theaters to experience Dune: Part Two when it hits screens in the coming weeks. The success of the film is crucial to Villeneuve's ability to complete his planned trilogy.
