Zendaya's performance as Rue on the second season of "Euphoria" is a gruelling exploration of the agony of addiction — and many people worried about the actor after seeing some of her more painful scenes, including Garfield. "I was like, 'Are you OK?' How did you make sure you were OK while you were doing that?" he asks, specifically referencing episode five, which focuses on Rue seemingly hitting rock bottom.
"It's tough," Zendaya admits, adding that she had been "afraid" to shoot the episode and that she "did get a lot of messages from people checking in on me, which I appreciated." She goes on to explain that her "approach was to try it as human as possible without ever shying away from the devastation and the ugliness of what that can create."
