Rue getting ruthless?
The dynamic between Zendaya and Sydney Sweeney was apparently far from euphoric at the âEuphoriaâ Season 3 premiere in Los Angeles Tuesday night.
The co-stars avoided each other at the star-studded event â which allegedly came as no surprise to some of their colleagues.
ââEuphoriaâ bosses are all too aware the pair do not get on. There were tensions way back ⊠their paths barely crossed during the making of Season 3,â an insider alleged to The Sun. âDuring the press tour, any interactions between the pair are being kept to a minimum to avoid any awkward encounters on camera. There is a complete ban on Âjournalists asking about tensions between Zendaya and Sydney.â
The main reason for their alleged feud involves none other than Zendayaâs partner â actor Tom Holland.
âIt was an open secret that Sydney had the hots for Tom and was flirty with him when he would come to set,â the source claimed. âThat did not go down well with Zendaya. They have not really hung out socially since then.â
Zendaya and her âSpider-Man: Homecomingâ co-star Holland, 29, have reportedly tied the knot, but have yet to confirm the news.
Once friendly, Zendaya and Sweeneyâs alleged tension appeared to start long before Hollandâs set visits. According to The Sun, their political differences have caused a wedge. While Sweeney has been registered with the Republican Party of Florida.
âItâs not like they have had a big bust-up, but Zendaya has quietly distanced herself from Syd. Their politics are wildly different,â the insider told The Sun. âItâs a bit of a headache because Zendaya doesnât want to be associated with a Trump supporter.â
On Tuesday night, Sweeney was all smiles while hitting the red carpet at the TCL Chinese Theatre in a white cape dress, an archival Pierre Cardin from 2007. She snapped pics with fellow cast members like Maude Apatow, Alexa Demie and Hunter Schafer as they made their way down the interview line.
Meanwhile, Zendaya â chic in a brown Ashi Studio SS26 Couture ensemble â arrived fashionably late, narrowly avoiding a run-in with Sweeney. Zendayaâs ex Jacob Elordi was also late to the carpet, skipping interviews and only posing for photos.
The distance was a striking contrast to when Zendaya and Sweeney posed together at the Season 1 and Season 2 premieres of the HBO series.
Further fueling the feud speculation, Zendaya skipped the castâs official afterparty at Chateau Marmont later in the night.
Sweeney, meanwhile, stepped out with boyfriend Scooter Braun, with the two holding hands and packing on subtle PDA in front of photographers.
Despite Sweeney and Zendaya keeping their distance from each other, an insider close to the situation shut down the report, telling us any rumors of a feud are not accurate.
âTheyâre both in high demand and working continuously,â the source told Page Six.
Another insider told us that, like Elordi, Zendaya actually missed run-ins with the cast due to her aforementioned late arrival. She arrived much later than Sweeney, Demie, Apatow and Schafer.
Reps for Sweeney and Zendaya did not immediately respond to Page Sixâs requests for comment.
Zendayaâs brief drop by came on the heels of promoting her A24 film âThe Dramaâ alongside Robert Pattinson.
Sheâs also preparing for the releases of Christopher Nolanâs âThe Odyssey,â âDune: Part Three,â and âSpider-Man: Brand New Dayâ later this year.
Sweeney and Elordi have been equally booked and busy, coming off of their respective projects, âThe Housemaidâ and âWuthering Heights.â
