Revealed: Robert Pattinson went ‘crazy for three days’ while working with Zendaya

Robert Pattinson revealed that a scene with Zendaya left him going ‘crazy for three days.’

The Harry Potter star, 38, spoke about his and Zendaya’s, 28, upcoming romance comedy-drama, тιтled The Drama, and how one particular scene had him rattled.

‘We had a scene together that was driving me crazy,’ the actor — who was seen shooting with the Euphoria star in November — told French publication Premiere. 

The father-of-one explained that he was ‘desperately looking for its meaning, writing pages and pages of textual analysis.’

However, when he reached out to the Dune actress and shared his thoughts, she put his mind at ease and helped him understand that the lines were meant to be taken at face value.

‘I ended up calling Zendaya the night before shooting the scene. 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.’

‘And there I was going crazy for three days,’ he humorously added.

Though specifics are still unknown, it’s reported that Pattinson and Zendaya — who is engaged to Spider-Man actor Tom Holland, 28 — play a couple whose romance takes an ‘unexpected turn’ before their ‘big day.’

The Drama is directed by Kristoffer Borgli.

The two were seen exchanging a laugh while on set of their upcoming A24 movie in Andover, Mᴀssachusetts in November.

For their scene, the pair looked happy as they strolled down the steps of the Addison Gallery of American Art, which had been transformed into the fictional Cambridge Art Museum. 

Elsewhere this week, Pattinson was spotted on the set of his other project, a movie tentatively called Primetime.

The British actor — who hopes to reprise his role as Batman — got to work in New Orleans, looking nearly unrecognizable with blonde hair.

Pattinson was clad in subtly striped dark trousers, a light blue patterned dress shirt, and a rouge-toned tie.

He layered a textured black jacket over his shirt, and carried a black backpack over one shoulder while slipping into character.

Per an account from Axios, production on the movie began last month and is expected to conclude on March 28.

The plot centers around a ‘journalist who takes on an underworld of crime and ends up changing television forever,’ according to a description from Caballero Casting.

In October Variety reported that the feature film is inspired by the NBC series To Catch A Predator, which follows undercover crime teams who catch Sєxual predators.

The screenplay was written by Ajon Singh, and Lance Oppenheim is directing the A24 movie.

Pattinson will serve as a producer under his production company Icki Eneo Arlo.

Phoebe Bridgers and Merritt Wever were also spotted on the set in a Nola parking lot.

As recently as last week Caballero was searching for men and women to play ‘upscale H๏τel guests’ in the production.

A post shared on Instagram alerted the public, ‘Last chance to be booked on this one!’ as it advertised an overnight shoot to take place at a H๏τel in Harvey, Louisiana.

Around the city, production signs are calling the movie Bluefin Tuna.

It comes after Pattinson opened up to Hero Magazine about playing the role of Batman as he ages.

Questioned about whether he will reprise the superhero role, Pattinson, answered, ‘I f***ing hope so. I started out as young Batman and I’m going to be f***ing old Batman by the sequel.’

‘I’m 38, I’m old,’ he added lightheartedly, noting, ‘I’m old, but I’m healthier. I think I’ve actually brought my biological age down a bit.’

Robert initially played the role in 2022’s The Batman, in which he starred opposite Zoe Kravitz’s Catwoman.

The actor welcomed his first child — a daughter — with fiancée Suki Waterhouse, 33, in March 2024.

The couple have been dating since 2018 and got engaged December 2023 with a source telling People at the time, ‘They are engaged. They both want to be married. It’s important for them.’
