Zendaya at the Oscars 2025: Why she stayed away from the red carpet!

There was a surprising lack of glamor at the 2025 Oscars, as A-list starlet Zendaya was conspicuous by her absence. The Academy Awards, usual for its gathering of Hollywood bigwigs, took place without the popular actress and her fiancé Tom Holland. While the red carpets glittered at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles, Zendaya chose a relaxing evening at home, which wasn't without reason oe24 reported.

Despite appearing in the highly acclaimed films Dune: Part Two and Challengers, Zendaya came up completely empty-handed in the Oscar nominations. Her absence is all the more surprising given that not only was her film “Challengers” ignored by the Academy, but she also failed to receive a Best Actress nomination for her role. In addition, the highly praised soundtrack, composed by Trent Reznor, came up empty despite a triumph at the Golden Globes, where the film won the award for best original score, as reported by Cosmopolitan is explained.

New projects in view

However, as reports further reveal, Zendaya could be back in the running for 2026 Oscar nominations with future projects. In particular, her role in Christopher Nolan's adaptation of "The Odyssey" promises exciting prospects, as she will once again play alongside Tom Holland. She has also won two Emmys in the hit series “Euphoria,” cementing her place as a future Oscar winner. While the Academy Awards took place without her sparkle, Zendaya remains a guaranteed star on the best lists whenever she decides to make her appearance.
