Zendaya had a little support from her biggest fan when the pressure of filming The Odyssey started getting to her.
During a special screening of Christopher Nolan’s blockbuster film in Los Angeles on Sunday, November 15, the actress — who plays Athena — revealed that her husband Tom Holland came to her rescue during a particularly nerve-racking scene involving numerous background actors and stunt performers.
“I was incredibly nervous and anxious,” she admitted, explaining that she did not want to ruin the take.

The pressure was even greater because the production was filming on IMAX cameras. Zendaya, 30, said the anxiety made her overthink her performance, but she tried to stay open to the work happening around her.
Thankfully, Holland — who portrays Telemachus — was there to lift her spirits.
“It helped that Tom came to set that day and he was like in the corner like you got this, you’re doing good,” she shared.
The Euphoria star also praised the dedication of the cast and crew, describing the production as a “labour of love.”
