The 'Euphoria' actress wore a long white dress with gold accents on the hem as she appeared in a futuristic style theme styled by designer Stéphane Rolland.

Zendaya also paired her dress with gold Jimmy Choo shoes and a stack of gold rings by Bulgari.

Throughout the press tour for 'Dune: Part Two', Zendaya has been a fashion icon as she showcased an array of stylish looks that complemented the film's theme, including a leather jumpsuit she was twinning with Chalamet and a Givenchy-styled couture robot in a vintage style.

Zendaya recently expressed her willingness to reprise her role in a third 'Dune' movie whenever she receives the call from director Denis Villeneuve and if he plans to proceed for a third installment.

She previously shared her thoughts on joining in another 'Dune' movie as she said, “Would we be down? I mean of course. Any time Denis calls it’s a yes from me."

"I’m excited to see what happens. I started ‘Messiah’ and I was like, ‘Woah, I’m only shooting the first movie. Let me just go back to the first one.’ It’s so much to take in, but there are no better hands with better care and love for it than Denis," she added.
