Zendaya: 10 greatest performances of all time
By Reed Gaudens
From the Disney Channel to Spider-Man and now to Euphoria, Zendaya is a talent to watch. Put her 10 best film and TV performances on replay.
The tale of former teen queen turned mega star is a tale as old as time. Disney Channel stars like Hilary Duff, Miley Cyrus, and Selena Gomez have launched successful careers in the entertainment industry outside of the squeaky clean walls of the House of Mouse. The next in line to rightfully steal the spotlight and the whole world’s attention? Zendaya.
The triple threat broke out in a big way on the Disney Channel’s hit series Shake It Up and followed up with the equally, if not more, popular series K.C. Undercover. But it’s her breakthrough big-screen roles in Spider-Man: Homecoming and The Greatest Showman that have cemented Zendaya as formidable talent that should not be underestimated.
She’s traveled to Europe with Peter Parker in this summer’s smash hit Spider-Man: Far From Home. She’s feuded with Bella Thorne in the DCOM Frenemies, and she’s voiced the yeti that launched a viral Twitter meme in Smallfoot. As she continues to wow critics and fans with her beautifully raw performance in HBO’s new teen drama series, it’s time to rank the rising star’s greatest show-stopping roles on screens big and small, from Disney to the daring Euphoria.
Which Disney Channel classics made the cut and which blockbuster took the top spot? Here’s our celebration of Zendaya’s best film and TV performances of all time!
