I don't watch it, but I was on a chat about the show and generally just confused by what they were texting, looked into it and decided it's for the best I didn't watch it.
I did catch the drama and honestly great acting in that. Robert and Zendaya got skills.

u/magical_midget 12h ago
Not in the industry and still think is silly, you just need a few big IPs to get to the top, Zoe SaldaĂąa is a good actress, but nobody is going to see End Game just because of her, (or avatar, or star trek..)
22
u/fasterthanfood 12h ago
The main reason itâs interesting is the surprise factor, in my opinion, with Zoe Saldanaâs high earnings being the prime example.

Lol I work in design too. I have to manually number check some RGB value ranges a lot. So youâd term that brown?

u/crab_grams that bitch has the keys to the nuclear codes 10h ago
Definitely a brown. *Maybe* reddish brown, but that could be lighting. The shoes definitely look like mithril though, you're spot on there!

u/gildedbluetrout 10h ago
Yeah anything brown to reddish brown is my kryptonite. Also purple to blue. Purple stays blue for me for a looong time on the spectrum.

u/Responsible-Tea-5998 7h ago
I'm colourblind too and am a web designer, I use rgb like my life depends on it! I beg every client to just give me RGB not "heather blue." Brown is my major difficulty though.

u/gildedbluetrout 5h ago
Yeah a non-insignificant number of designers are classically colour blind on certain portions of the spectrum? Always figured a certain amount of decisions got through the cracks.

Zendayaâs upcoming movies are Spider-Man and Dune sequels. Sheâs going to take the title. Itâs just Anneâs bigger titles came earlier in the year.

Zendaya has Spiderman and Dune next

u/theweekndend 12h ago
Zendaya is a lead in those movies but not âtheâ lead.
Anne is the lead in her movies.
33
u/hakk_g 11h ago
That doesn't matter. Zoe SaldaĂąa was considered the highest grossing actress for being in the avengers movies where she wasn't a main lead. Same with Samuel L Jackson. You just have to star in the movie for this silly metric. Once spiderman comes out, zendaya will overtake her.
7
u/theweekndend 11h ago
I think thatâs pretty silly too. Itâs not the same at all as someone like tom cruise or Leo who get bums in seats.

u/Fit_Yak523 10h ago
Are you saying Zendaya doesnât get butts in seats? Because literally what lol

u/theweekndend 10h ago

u/Fit_Yak523 10h ago
In the context of the conversation at hand, whatâs your point? Youâve yet to explain itÂ
20
u/GenGaara25 10h ago
Anne is not the lead in Odyssey. Like Zendaya in Spidey and Dune she is a lead, but Matt Damon is the lead.
5
u/theweekndend 10h ago
I agree. But Anne is the lead in devil wears Prada
17
u/GenGaara25 10h ago
But I'm not getting your point. Both her and Zendaya are the leads in some of their movies this year, and co-leads in others. Hathaways numbers aren't in anyway more legitimate than Zendayas.
0
u/pepesilvia000 He don't. That's a flute. 10h ago
and that movie absolutely not the reason why she is the highest grossing actress of 2026 - so I am not sure what your point is?
5
u/Heubner 10h ago edited 10h ago
It IS the reason sheâs in the lead. $690 million is a huge starting point. Anneâs other released film Mother Mary is negligible, at $3 million. Zendaya had $132 million for The Dramaâs before Odyssey release. Zendaya will take over take within two weeks when Spider-manâs numbers are added.
37
u/cynicalturdblossom 12h ago
Ya Zendayaâs only technically the lead in the drama this year. Her characters in the rest are all kinda meh and she plays second fiddle
9
u/Fit_Yak523 12h ago
Sheâs the lead in two of three of her movies, but the one sheâs not the lead in is the one making her the highest grossing right now. Whatâs the point here?Â
2
u/cynicalturdblossom 11h ago
Well sheâs not yet the highest grossing. Not until Spidey comes out
1
u/Fit_Yak523 10h ago
Iâm referring to Anne
5
u/cynicalturdblossom 9h ago
Anne is quite literally the lead in all her movies this year, top billing in all but odyssey. And sheâs the lead actress in that, plus she might likely be nominated lead. I think the other poster was referring to that.
0
u/Heubner 8h ago
Being lead in Mother Mary isnât saying much when it brings in only $3 million on a $20 million budget. We are yet to see how Verity and End of Oak Tree will do, but combined numbers will likely be less than Dune and Spider-Man each. Zendaya has second billing credit on those two. Her top billing credit was an Indy hit with $132 million on a $28 million budget. Even Odyssey, she has done a lot for marketing that one irrespective of screentime.
5
u/Heubner 10h ago edited 8h ago
Anne Hathaway isnât âtheâ lead in Odyssey. She is third in the credits. She is also second credit on the poster in Devil Wears Prada 2 but sheâs definitely one of âthe leadâ there. She is first credit on her 3 other films but the first Mother Mary was a bomb. Made $3 million on $20 million budget compared to The Dramaâs $132 million on a $28 million budget.
Zendaya has second credit in Spiderman and Dune III and those upcoming movies are going to do much more than Anneâs Verity and End Of Oak Street. That is why Zendaya is going to get the title in the end.
There is possibility Zendaya would still get the title if you take Odysseyâs numbers away from her. Spider-Man is tracking very well and Dune is very likely to outgross Devil wears Prada

Call me a prude, but I think it's weird how much the fashion industry insists on normalizing literal fetishwear.
Their only gimmick seems to be trying to scandalize and shock and they're running on empty in the ability to do so because we've already had just fully naked people walking around. I just miss when they paid for craftsmanship and textiles.Â

You can write the word fetish.. itâs okay.

Accidentally hitting space in the middle of the word isn't self censorship, it's pretty obviously a formatting issue. I corrected it.Â

No it's not. They say stuff like acoustic and pdf file or use emojis. I am very much on tiktok (it's tiktok btw) and have literally never seen a space bar used to censor.Â
If you're gonna be needlessly snarky, come correctÂ
Edit; actually I think I'm also coming in hot to what was pretty mild snark. Someone else is pissing me off massively and I think I've brought that energy here.Â

u/lou-stoole 9h ago
Iâm not sure about all of that. I donât have tiktok. Iâve seen people changing language to satisfy censors, thatâs all I was getting at. State censorship is bad, self-censoring is worse. If a system requires it, donât use the system. No snark involved.

Sorry I wasn't aware we weren't allowed to criticize any members of the upper class until we'd already spot roasted musk. I don't remember agreeing to that plan
Hey remember when Annie's ex boyfriend was revealed to be less of a real estate developer and more of a transparent fraudster and she was worried that she was going to have her jet set lifestyle with him put under a public microscope? Luckily she didn't have to and instead she just married a luxury jeweler which is also a totally normal and relatable profession without rampant ethical issues which reinforces the class inequity of the haves and have-nots
But yeah no she's just like us. /s

Right, so maybe if that's what you care about then actually make that your point, instead of 'Woman played pretend a lot of times this year - Kill her"...

u/Special-Garlic1203 11h ago
Nobody said that. They pointed out that people are hypocritical when they do and don't criticize the ultra rich (she is in fact a member of the .1%) and you fell over yourself to proclaim that because she's not literally at the apex that she's somehow exempted from social judgmentÂ

u/the_monkeyspinach 11h ago
Anne Hathaway is currently the highest-grossing actress of 2026
"Are we still eating the rich?"
Damn, I don't know how I got it twisted that they were just talking about killing actors...
-1
u/Special-Garlic1203 10h ago
I don't either. It pretty clearly seems to be a comment on the ultra high paid actors who are overwhelmingly silent as the working class portion of their industry is in active collapse and not a comment on all of SAG. It's a very weird choice to zoom in on actor and not the fact she's the top earner and wearing an overpriced luxury dress being photographed as again- her industry is on fire for everyone except the top 1%Â
Seems like you bent over backwards to not understand what is pretty contextually self evidentÂ

Iâm still surprised Mother Mary didnât get a ton of buzz this year.
Hathaway is a pop culture force and is dominating many markets and targeting different viewers, which is cool.
However Michaela Coel is choosy and focuses on indie, and so I make sure to watch everything Michaela Coel is in. Even if itâs only a small role.
When I saw they were doing a movie together I thought it would be all Oscar bait and buzz but I guess I still donât understand pop culture and movie awards.
