Former Vice President of Casting and Talent Relations at the children’s network Cornelia Frame revealed that the Euphoria star wanted to be part of the franchise and auditioned multiple times.
“Zendaya did audition many times for Descendants, and that was a big deal,” Frame said during an interview on the Magical Rewind podcast. “It was a really big deal. She auditioned over and over and really wanted it. It just ended up not going her way.”
Frame continued, “Now that I think about it, I’m like, ‘Would Spider-Man have happened right at that same time?’ Things happen for a reason, and you do often book this other thing that’s amazing when you don’t get something else.”
