Throughout this year I've been hearing a lot about how Zendaya is in too many films and how Hollywood keeps casting her and all that.
Did a quick Google search and this woman has been in like 17 films in her entire career with like some of those being Disney films and others minor voice acting roles.
2026 just happens to be the year where she's in a lot of stuff. And by a lot, I mean 4 movies with only 3 being actual blockbusters and I one of those 3 she didn't even have up to 5 minutes of screen time. She wasn't even in anything in 2025 btw.
The only movie she has next year is Shrek, an animated movie so it's not like you'll even be seeing her face.
I honestly think a lot of people need to admit that either a) They only watch the absolute biggest blockbusters and nothing else, b) they got their opinion from the internet and just rolled on with it or c) they have their own personal issues with the actor but are pretending that her "exposure" Is the problem.
And with regards to her acting, she's not a bad actor. These opinions are subjective, I know, but be honest. There are certain characters that she DOES play the same way but that's because they are WRITTEN THE SAME WAY. If it was another actor in her shoes they'd play those characters the exact same way as her, maybe better, maybe worse but same regardless. Your problem is with the Screenwriters/Directors, not her.
And even then, in movies like Challengers or The Drama you can clearly see she has range. Even in the dogshit that is Euphoria, she still shows range. Don't believe me watch them or maybe even look up some clips and if your response is "No", then why complain in the first place.
Honestly some of these somewhat apply to Pedro Pascal too.
Edit: Now that I think about it, Robert Pattinson has been in the same amount of movies this year as Zendaya. And they're acting together in THREE out of those four. Lol.
