There is no wonder Zendaya has emerged as one of the breakout stars in Hollywood thanks to her roles in Marvel Studios’Spider-Manfilms and HBO’sEuphoria. With a whopping salary for both her movie and television projects, the actress has climbed the list of the highest-earning female celebrities.
Meanwhile, Tom Holland, who led theSpider-Manfranchise, reportedly earned $3 million inAvengers: Endgame. This pay check seems very little compared to the actress’ reported compensation of $10 million for her appearance in the upcoming filmChallengersand her $1 Million per episode forEuphoria.

Zendaya On Being Financially Wise And Capable
Despite her fame and fortune, Zendaya finds it difficult to spend money on herself. The actress loves a good treat once in a while, but she likes being financially wise. She toldVogue:
“My mother’s a saver, and so I try to keep that in mind. Then my dad’s like, ‘You know, you’re able to’t spend it when you’re dead,’ kind of thing. I’m somewhere in between.”
Zendaya’s hard work and dedication to her craft proved that she values every cent she earns, and she certainly knows that tomorrow is not guaranteed, so it is always best to be ready. She further added:
“The hope is to have a career where you can be in a position, financially, to just do things you want to do because you enjoy the work and not have to worry about the other things. But I’m always like, ‘I will always need to work.’ Because if I don’t work then everything can be gone tomorrow.”
There is no doubt that Zendaya will continue to reach new heights with the level of success she currently has, and along with that, her pay check will keep getting bigger and higher!
