Zendaya has us longing for the upcoming Dune sequel in her latest stunning, desert-set Instagram post! The Emmy winner and style icon, 26, just uploaded a breathtaking, windswept shot of herself while rocking a beige, sultry cardigan, and fans can’t get enough. The Euphoria star is also the latest celeb to don the ‘risqué cardigan‘ trend, or a partially unbuttoned, braless, ab-baring look that makes us think of the 90s and turn-of-the-century fashion.

Zendaya Wows Fans In Sultry Cardigan Look While Teasing Dune Sequel

While Zendaya didn’t caption her post or reveal where the photo was taken, many fans in her comment section have an inkling that she is filming Dune: Part Two in the desert location. “Dune 2 is going to be fire,” one user wrote, while another added, “Dune: Part Two The Zendaya Cut” with a heart-eyes emoji. Someone else commented, “Definitely the spiciest thing on Arrakis,” referencing the desert planet from the film.

Other fans and members of her 159 million followers expressed that they were “in awe” of not only the photo, but also Zendaya’s chic, trendy cardigan look. Along with her camel piece, she added a shiny diamond necklace to accessorize, and wore her long, wavy brunette tresses down. “Ok abs!” wrote one user, as the top helped showcase Zendaya’s ultra-toned figure.

Another wrote, “absolutely flawless” as others conveyed their thoughts with red heart and fire emojis. Others asked in the comments if viral rumors of Zendaya’s engagement to boyfriend Tom Holland are really true, but the two Spider-Man: No Way Home stars have yet to confirm or deny them.

The sequel will hit US theaters on November 3, 2023, and according to DigitalSpy, Dune: Part 2 started production earlier this year with location shoots set in “Budapest, Abu Dhabi, Jordan, and Italy.” Earlier this week, Zendaya posted a snapshot from Abu Dhabi, and continues to tease the long-awaited movie.

Zendaya’s co-star Chalamet, 26, recently spoke about working with her on Dune in an interview with Variety. He said, “She hasn’t wrapped yet, and it’s amazing.” He continued, adding of Zendaya, “She’s bringing exactly what she brought to the first one — which was incredible — but in greater abundance. And she’s really become a sister. I’m so grateful to count her as a partner and a sister and a friend, and also to share stories about how amazing it is to work with Luca [Guadagnino], because we worked with him back to back on wildly different projects.”
