Zendaya is set to return as Chani in Dune: Part Three, the next instalment of Denis Villeneuve’s science-fiction franchise, which is scheduled for release in December.

The Odyssey also has significance for the actress and Holland. The pair are attached to director Christopher Nolan’s upcoming adaptation of the classic epic poem, with Zendaya reportedly set to portray the goddess Athena. Holland is also expected to star in the film.

Zendaya and Holland first met while filming Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017. After years of friendship and fan speculation, the pair publicly confirmed their relationship in 2021.

A source later confirmed that Holland had proposed during the 2024 holiday season.

The bookshop visit offered a rare public glimpse of Zendaya away from film sets and red carpets, while subtly highlighting upcoming projects that will feature both her and Holland.
