Fans were seen being thrown into a huge frenzy when a wedding-style announcement featuring Zendaya and Robert Pattinson surfaced online.

This made it appear like both Hollywood stars recently got engaged. The formal portrait displayed Zendaya donning a ring and posing with Pattinson, which most readers initially took at face value. However, it was not a real engagement at all, despite all the controversies rolling out.

It was a clever marketing stunt linked to the pair’s upcoming A24 romantic comedy film called The Drama. In this movie, both stars are seen playing an engaged couple whose wedding week unravels after the most unexpected events.

This wedding announcement was said to be linked to an ad/teaser for this movie’s release, complete with fictional character biographies and a wedding date that matched the movie’s release. Zendaya went on to share an image on Instagram with another playful caption dubbed The Drama. Formal Invitation to Follow.

This fueled further confusion amongst different fans who temporarily thought it was an actual engagement reveal. This is bizarre, considering the fact that Zendaya is already engaged to her lover and actor Tom Holland in real life.

Fans first share how they are confused, while others knew that this publicity stunt was not going to fool them. Once the actual context was clear, this was a fictional promotion, and most were amused instead of genuinely getting misled.
