Right now, Spider-Man 4 is in production, but the plot and cast are being held tightly under wraps, as is common for the MCU. While some casting announcements, such as Tom Holland obviously reprising his role as Peter Parker, have been made public, and new additions like Sadie Sink were announced without details of who they are playing, it has yet to be confirmed for certain if Zendaya will reprise her role as Michelle Jones. Since Zendaya is dating Holland in real life, it’s also hard to imagine this could be confirmed by the star simply hanging around the set.

However, despite the way that Spider-Man: No Way Home ended, with her character losing all memory of Peter Parker, it’s hard to imagine she will not return at some point in the MCU. Admittedly, it is possible that she may not be in Spider-Man 4, but it is almost certain that Zendaya will return to the MCU, and her character will be reunited with Peter Parker. Regardless, it is very possible that Zendaya will be back as soon as Spider-Man 4, which is set to release in July 2026.

Dune: Part Three

Similarly, Dune: Part Two featured a tense ending that could hint at Zendaya’s Chani not returning in the third entry. However, if Denis Villeneuve sticks to the novels, Chani will appear in Dune: Part Three. During the two previous entries, Zendaya has played the role of a strong Fremen who falls in love with Paul Atreides, the man who is destined to become a savior of Arrakis. Chani is powerful, wise, and possesses intense love for Paul, but in order to save her people, Paul has become engaged to Princess Irulan, the daughter of the Emperor.

Despite this, Chani is not one to go down without a fight, and Paul appears to possess no real feelings for Princess Irulan. The result is likely to see a tense love triangle story play out in the next entry, while the political unrest grows more unstable. Zendaya has so far performed spectacularly in the series, and her return in the third chapter is highly anticipated.

As far as actually confirmed projects where Zendaya is set to appear, she has been cast among the large ensemble set to bring the ancient Greek epic poem to life in The Odyssey. From visionary director Christopher Nolan, this film is his latest passion project, and the next release due from him after the award-winning Oppenheimer came out in 2023. While the specifics of who is playing who have yet to be revealed, there has been a lot of speculation about which actors may be tied to which roles in The Odyssey, with Zendaya assumed to be playing the part of Athena.

This would potentially see Zendaya paired with Tom Holland yet again, who is speculated to play the part of Telemachus. The story is a tale of war, adventure, and self-discovery, combined with the magic and wonder of the Greek gods. If Zendaya is playing Athena, it will be one of her most challenging roles to date as she plays the god of wisdom and war, but with Nolan’s guidance, many incredible actors have been able to break through into stunning new heights of quality and versatility.

Euphoria

Euphoria first began airing on HBO Max back in 2019. Immediately, the show became a sensational hit, praised for its gripping storytelling, range of talented actors, and intense no-holds-barred approach to depicting the complex lives of young people in the modern era. However, the show’s incredible actors also proved to be some of the biggest rising stars in Hollywood, with Zendaya, Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney, and Hunter Schafer all being central stars of the show, and increasingly popular names around Hollywood.

As a result of their incredible success, the show is set to release its third season in 2026, seven years after the series first began. Evidently, with so much hot talent, the actors have struggled to find space in their schedules to come together in season 3, but finally, Zendaya will return as Rue Bennett alongside the equally incredible co-stars of the series.

Shrek 5

Shrek 5 is also a long-awaited sequel to a set of stories that began in 2001. The last entry in the series came out in 2010, Shrek Forever After, but it wasn’t quite as well-received as earlier entries in the franchise. With the previous movie leaving the timeline a bit of a mess, and and extended gap between entries, Shrek 5 appears to be bringing the franchise back to life, with some adjustments to the previously established lore of the films.

Initially, Shrek and Fiona had triplets at the end of Shrek the Third, though they did not have much of a role in the fourth film. The timeline fell into disrepair, and now, it seems as though Shrek and Fiona have a single daughter, a teenage ogre who is set to be voiced by Zendaya. Details about the plot and other cast remain under wraps for now, but Zendaya’s role suggests that her character will have a major part to play in the film alongside the returning cast of Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, and Cameron Diaz.

The Drama

Over the last couple of years, smaller film studio A24 has been seeing an incredible rise in success with hit independent films and original stories. While much of Hollywood is focused on building franchises and capitalizing on major IPs, A24 is focused on bringing vibrant, fresh, and compelling original stories to light.

The upcoming film, The Drama, will continue that trend, as Zendaya and Robert Pattinson star in this dramatic romantic comedy about a couple who face some unforeseen struggles just ahead of their wedding day. An extensive casting list has been released ahead of the movie’s theatrical release, but as far as the plot and other details, more will be revealed in the trailers and marketing. However, the cast and studio instill confidence that this will be one to watch.

Ronnie Spector Biopic

Zendaya also has a spectacular singing voice which she is set to incorporate into her upcoming performance in a new Ronnie Spector biopic. Following a trend of musical biopics, A24 has cast Zendaya to play the iconic musician in a film directed by Barry Jenkins. Spector was a huge name in the music industry for many years, who passed away in 2022. Now, her life, her role in forming the band, The Ronettes, and more are set to be the subject of this upcoming film (via Deadline).
