Zendaya shocked fans when she showed up at a Spider-Man: Far From Home photo call with red hair and immediately sent everyone into a tizzy!

Many fans believed that the 22-year-old actress showed off her new hairdo to play the role of Ariel in the live action The Little Mermaid.

Zendaya replied to some fans on Twitter setting the record straight on the red color – she’s paying homage to the MJ character in Spider-Man, who typically has red hair.

“MJ homage ♥️,” she responded to one person, adding to another, “I dyed it, semi-permanent.”

And as for those The Little Mermaid rumors, she said, “Although flattering this is and always has been a rumor lol”

The Little Mermaid cast is rumored to be announced at the D23 Expo at the end of August, so we’ll just have to wait and see!

The Spider-Man: Far From Home cast are continuing on with their press tour!

The trio were also joined at the event by their co-star Jacob Batalon, as well as director Jon Watts and two Yeoman Warders as they reunited at one of the films iconic locations.

Zendaya shows off her smile while having a discussion about her new show Euphoria on Friday (June 14) in New York City.

The 22-year-old actress was joined by writer and director Sam Levinson, who her character Rue is actually based off of.

Zendaya shared a video of Sam talking about the story in the show, and his struggles, which brought everyone to tears.

“There wasn’t a dry eye in the house. If you watch our show, I hope you watch this first, all the way to the end and truly understand where and who it comes from. Sam thank you for existing so Rue could exist. You’re courageous and brilliant and I’m lucky to learn from you, thank you for trusting me with your story,” she captioned the video.

She later apologized for the quality of her video.

“Via my last ig, sorry for my sh–ty camera work, I had to pass it to my mom cause I was getting to emosh,” she added on Twitter.

FYI: Zendaya is wearing Vera Wang.

If you’ve seen the IMAX poster for Zendaya‘s upcoming movie, Spider-Man: Far From Home, you probably had the same reaction as many.

However, the 22-year-old actress is poking back at fans for mocking the poster for the flick, which is out in theaters in July.

Many fans started to make fun of the promo poster which has a Photoshop look, and created their own posters for the movie.

Responding to one user’s creation, Zendaya, who plays MJ in the movie, tweeted a simple “…”

It looks like she wasn’t a fan of their own creation at all.

Spider-Man: Far From Home also stars Tom Holland, Jacob Batalon and Jake Gyllenhaal.

Zendaya‘s brand new series, Euphoria, is premiering in just two days.

The 22-year-old actress is opening up with the NY Times about how nervous she was to take on the role and finally saying goodbye to Disney for now.

On leaving Disney: “There was no strategic plan. After shooting The Greatest Showman and Spider-Man, I went back to my Disney show, which is kind of like going to college and then having to go back and do the same grade over and over again. Not that I didn’t appreciate having a job. But it’s like you turn a switch on and do it, and then you get turned off and go home. I wanted more.”

On relating to Rue: “I feel like she’s a version of myself with different choices and circumstances. Rue is a good person, she just doesn’t know it. She’s in pain. There’s something innocent and redeeming about her that reminds you that she’s a human first and an addict second.”

On how she felt about stepping into the role: “I was really nervous because I wanted to do well. It’s like going from nothing to everything — there were no steps in between. That’s why people think it’s such a stretch for me to play this character. There’s a lot of people who probably think I can’t do it because they don’t truly understand my personality. And I get it: I’m a Disney kid. There’s a lot to prove.”

Euphoria premieres Sunday, June 16th on HBO. See the trailer here!
