How tall is Zendaya? Actress jokes about her height difference with Tom Holland

Zendaya and Tom Holland are currently busy promoting their new superhero flick ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’

Zendaya and Tom Holland, who are currently busy promoting their new superhero flick ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’, recently joked about their difference in height while sitting for an interview on ‘The Graham Norton Show’. The young couple who has been reportedly dating for the last few months were pretty cool about talking about their height difference while discussing how they performed their stunts in Marvel’s new movie.
 
Zendaya while talking about a specific scene in the movie said while the superhero played by Holland was supposed to land first she would land on the ground first due to her tall height. Tom Holland, who will be reprising his iconic Spider-Man role again, joked that since he was the superhero he was supposed to look cool. Speaking of the movie, ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ is scheduled to hit the theatres on December 17, 2021. The film will also see the return of baddies like Doctor Octopus played by Alfred Molina, Green Goblin played by Willem Dafoe, Electro played by Jamie Foxx, and Sandman reportedly played by Thomas Haden Church.

 How tall is Zendaya?

While Zendaya and Tom Holland have been dating for the last few months, them getting clicked together does always bring the discussion on their height. According to multiple reports, Zendaya is 5’10 or 5’10 and a half. Tom Holland, on the other hand, stands at 5’8. The two-inch height difference is clearly visible between the two but that, of course, did not stop the actors from falling for each other.
 
While mocking their own heights for a stunt on ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ sequel, Zendaya on ‘The Graham Norton Show’ said, “There’s a particular stunt where Spider-Man swings us on top of a bridge and he places me there” adding that Holland is supposed to “gently” rest her on the bridge before walking away. She continued while having a laugh about it, “Because of our height difference… we were attached, so I would land before him. My feet obviously hit the ground before he does.” Tom Holland then explains, “I’m the superhero. I’m supposed to look cool. She would land, and then I would sort of land like this, and then my feet would swing from underneath me, and she would catch me.”

‘He tries to be as the same height as Zendaya but it’s not working’

A few social media users took to Twitter where one of them said, “Why is the tom and Zendaya height difference always a topic of conversation? Cringing over shorter men is your internalized misogyny showing.” Another stated, “I’m so obsessed with tom and zendaya’s height difference…short king.”  One shared, “He tries to be as the same height as Zendaya but it’s not working”, as another pitched in, “Zendaya and Tom are definitely giving me Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman vibes with the height difference.”  The next one tweeted, “Zendaya is tall tall, I think online her height is a lie because when I shot with her she was a lot taller than me”, as another concluded, “She's dating a yt twink midget.”
