Zendaya and Florence Pugh sizzled while attending the star-studded premiere of Dune: Part Two in Mexico City, Mexico, on Tuesday.
The Euphoria star, 27, showed off a hint of underboob in a unique brown crop top with structured shoulders and a high neck.
The actress, who recently admitted it’s “strange” to kiss her co-star and friend Timothee Chalamet, 28, in the film, paired the look with a matching brown skirt that featured a thigh-high slit.
She added height to her frame with a pair of black heels and wore her short brunette locks parted on the side and swept down.
Meanwhile, Pugh, 28, slid her curves into a form-fitting white dress with ruched details.
The Oppenheimer beauty wore her bleached blonde locks in a messy pixie style and accessorized them with dangling earrings.
Kylie Jenner’s leading man and boyfriend, Timothee, looked dapper in a gray suit.
His jacket was tucked into his pants, which were held together with a black belt. She had her sleeves rolled up to reveal a black shirt underneath her.
She finished the look with black boots and styled her dark locks in loose curls.
Pugh is a newcomer to Dune and will play Princess Irulan, the Emperor’s daughter.
Chalamet will reprise his role as Paul Atreides, the duke of House Atreides. Meanwhile, Zendaya returns as Chani, a young Fremen who becomes Paul’s love interest.
Her co-star Austin Butler, 32, was also in attendance and arrived wearing a bold black pinstripe suit with structured shoulders. Underneath him he wore a partially unbuttoned black shirt.
The Elvis star completed the look with black boots.
Butler is a newcomer and will play Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen, Baron Harkonnen’s young nephew and planned successor as ruler of Arrakis.
The role was previously played by Sting in the 1984 version of David Lynch’s Dune.
In addition to Zendaya, Chalamet, Pugh and Butler, the cast includes Javier Bardem, Christopher Walken, Stellan Skarsgard, Dave Bautista, Lea Seydoux, Rebecca Ferguson and more.
Dune: Part Two was originally intended to be released on October 20, 2023 before being delayed to November 17 and then March 15, 2024, due to the SAG-AFTRA actors’ strike.
After multiple delays, the film will hit theaters on March 1, 2024.
The sci-fi sequel, directed by Denis Villeneuve, is being co-produced with Legendary Entertainment in addition to Warner Bros. Film Group.
Dune: Part One and Part Two are based on the novel of the same name by Frank Herbert, which was originally published in 1965.
The official logline for Dune: Part 2 reads: “Paul faces a choice between the love of his life and the fate of the known universe, and strives to avoid a terrible future that only he can foresee.”
One of the first attempts to adapt the novel into a film was led by director Alejandro Jodorowsky, and although the project was ultimately cancelled, his efforts were documented in the 2013 film Jodorowsky’s Dune.
David Lynch went on to direct an adaptation of Dune, which was critically panned upon its release in 1984.
Villeneuve joined remakes of the project in 2016, and Dune: Part One was finally released in 2021.
The feature received positive reviews from critics and currently has an 83% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Dune: Part One also won six of the ten Academy Awards for which it was nominated, including Best Cinematography, Best Original Score, and Best Sound.
The film’s sequel was not formally greenlit until after the release of the first film, although it was put into production just days after the debut of Dune: Part One.
Filming for the film took place from July to December last year, and took place in locations including Budapest and Abu Dhabi.
Villeneuve has also expressed his desire to direct a third feature film in the series, which would be based on Herbert’s 1969 novel Dune Messiah.
