Set harmony
'They really did...everyone wants to do the work'
Herman stressed that there was "no drama" between Zendaya and Sweeney. She said, "Really, they've created this beautiful working relationship and everyone wants to do the work, to come in and do the job." The actor defended Zendaya and Sweeney, saying they hardly share scenes. "To be fair, when I was there, they're not sharing scenes," she added.
Rumor clarification
Herman's comments come after report of 'feud'
Herman's comments come after a report by The Sun claimed that Zendaya and Sweeney didn't get along. An insider had told the outlet, "There will be a sigh of relief when 'Euphoria' is over and they can go their separate ways." However, Herman's statements contradict this narrative, emphasizing that there was no tension between the two actors on set.
