Zendaya to Star in Alex Garland’s New Sci-Fi Film for A24

–

Neutral summary

Zendaya has signed on to star in a new science-fiction film written and directed by Alex Garland for A24, as reported on October 15, 2026. According to Variety, the feature is set to begin shooting in 2027, while plot details remain undisclosed. CNews notes the announcement comes about two months before the release of the latest “Dune” installment featuring the actress, and follows her earlier statement that she planned to slow down her workload. The project continues Zendaya’s partnership with A24, which previously produced “Euphoria” — its third and final season aired in 2026 — and “The Drama” opposite Robert Pattinson, which grossed over $135 million worldwide. The Hollywood Reporter adds that “Dune: Part Three” is also expected later this year. All sources agree that production on Garland’s new film will begin in 2027.
