Zendaya had a dehydration-induced well being scare on the set of Dune: Part Two as a result of distant desert location of the sequel.
The Golden Globe winner revealed she suffered heatstroke whereas filming the Denis Villeneuve-helmed adaptation in Jordan, the place the closest lavatory was a “hike” away, so she opted to not drink water.
“It was very hot, and I remember thinking, ‘Oh, man, the bathrooms are so far away,’ because we had to hike to the locations. If you have to pee, you need at least 10 minutes to get out of the costumes,” she defined to W Magazine.
“I was like, Damn, I don’t want to drink too much water. I had such a fear of peeing myself or shitting myself, honestly, in the suit on set,” Zendaya continued. “One day, I didn’t drink enough and I had a heatstroke. I felt so barfy. I remember calling my mom on the bathroom floor, saying, ‘I feel terrible.’ She was like, ‘Did you drink water today?’ I said no. I thought I was being smart, but you can’t do that. So, lesson learned.”
