Was Zendaya cast in the 'Barbie' live-action movie?
Zendaya, aka Tom Holland's girlfriend and our Euphoria queen, is a remarkable actress. From Dune to Spider-Man: No Way Home, she's held a lot of main roles and definitely knows her means around a movie set.
With that said, it isn't surprising that some folks mechanically assumed she was cast in Barbie when photos of her dressed head to toe in purple started fluttering around Twitter.

Seems professional, right? Not exactly.
Real web sleuths and Zendaya superfans might already be capable of inform that either one of the ones tweets have been (unfortunately!) fake.
How can we inform? Well for starters, that isn't even Zendaya in the first tweet. It's in fact a wax figure of her. Earlier this 12 months, she was honored along with her own wax figure at Madame Tussauds wax museum. That picture of her in the pink pants suit is in fact her wax figurine.

Furthermore, the tweet where Zendaya is noticed with Margot is also fake. While that is Zendaya this time (and no longer a wax figure!), she was photoshopped into the scene with Margot.
Zendaya was photographed wearing that red number at the Valentino type show all the way through Paris Fashion Week.

Lastly, to in spite of everything put this rumor to relaxation, should you visit the IMDb web page for Barbie, Zendaya's name is not listed. While literally the rest is conceivable, particularly as this movie is still in manufacturing, we will be able to verify that as of scripting this, Zendaya is not slated to celebrity in Barbie. Also, those photos are fake.
Zendaya has previously shut down rumors about her that appeared on social media.
Zendaya isn't any stranger to having rumors about her unfold on social media. In June 2022, a viral TikTok video claimed that she was pregnant. People on Twitter could not forestall tweeting about this alleged pregnancy, which after all was all a hoax.
Reacting to all the rumors, Zendaya left the following message on her Instagram Story: "See now, this is why I stay off Twitter," followed via "Just making stuff up for no reason ... weekly."
And unfortunately, it seems folks did not get the hint that they will have to forestall, given this string of tweets about the Barbie movie.
Bottom line: If Warner Bros. did not free up the photographs, and as a substitute they're discovered on Twitter, there is a just right chance they might be fake.
