Zendaya Says ‘I Had Such a Fear of Peeing or S—ting Myself’ in ‘Dune 2’ Suit That ‘I Didn’t Drink Enough and Had a Heatstroke’


Zendaya refused to drink water on the "Dune 2" set because she was afraid of peeing herself in her heavy costume. Then she suffered heatstroke.

The suit she’s referring to is the body armor worn by the Fremen warriors in the movie to help them survive the brutal conditions of the desert. 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. “What was so great is I had been training with the boys on ‘Challengers’ every day and was in the best shape that I had been in a really long time,” Zendaya said.
