Holland was effusive in his praise for Zendaya’s work, particularly highlighting her recent performances. “I think what I love about watching her work as an actress is she’s just fearless,” he said. “She’s just like absolutely 10 toes down, ‘I’m going to give this everything’. And I think when you watch her as Rue in that show, she could not be more different to who she is in real life.”Zendaya also recently starred opposite Robert Pattinson in ‘The Drama’. Holland referenced both performances in his tribute. “If you see her as Emma in ‘The Drama’, it’s just such a different performance, but with no less intent or passion or drive. I think she’s the best actor going. I really think she has something special,” he said.

Holland also spoke about what it means to have someone by his side who truly understands the pressures of life in the entertainment industry. “It’s a wild world being in this industry and there are ups and downs and you go from shooting a movie, which is when we’re all at our most comfortable, and then you do a press tour, which feels like you’re kind of standing out on the stage,” he said. “It’s so nice to have someone that understands that in such a personal way so that you can talk each other down or you can big each other up. It’s a lifeline, it really is. I couldn’t imagine doing what I do without her.”
