Tom Holland and Zendaya stepped out for date night at the afterparty for the U.K. premiere of 'The Odyssey,' following their exclusive chats with ET’s Kevin Frazier. Zendaya turned heads in her second red carpet look, a Valentino gown, giving full goddess energy — inspired by her character, Athena — as she and Holland walked hand in hand while celebrating the highly anticipated blockbuster. The film, directed by Christopher Nolan, reportedly carried a $250 million budget and marks the first movie shot entirely with IMAX cameras. Holland also revealed he got to share the exciting news with his real-life Mrs. that she had landed a role in the film after he was cast as Odysseus. Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, Charlize Theron and Robert Pattinson also star in the film, which hits theaters on July 17.

I'm still pinching myself.
It doesn't feel real yet.
Newly wed and star of the $250 million epic The Odyssey,
that's Tom Holland with wife Zendaya,
arm and arm at the UK premiere After Party.
Zendaya still in her second red carpet look by Valentino,
giving us full goddess vibes, like her character Athena.
Kevin sat down with the couple and their co-stars
exclusively in London and found out
Tom's biggest competition is his missus.
I heard that there was only one person
who got a perfect from Christopher after their take.
That might've been your wife.
I got a hug at one point from a very important scene
in the movie, which really meant a lot to me.
But once I knew that there were perfects on the table,
I did everything I could to get one.
Did that get a little tense in your house
where it's like, no, I was perfect today?
No, no, because she's perfect.
What did you do that was so perfect?
I don't know, I don't know.
I was just excited to be there
and wanting to do my best work.
You know, you don't want to be the one thing
that's like, okay, get it together.
It was pretty incredible to have Zendaya at some point.
I said she did something perfect
because she did something perfect.
And I think Tom and Matt took that a little personally.
Christopher Nolan cast Tom first to play Odysseus' son
in the nearly three hour film that hits theater July 17th.
Zendaya found out she also got a role later.
Tom got to break the news.
Man, it was like the best kind of surprise.
I was already so excited and so full of like joy
and I couldn't wait to like be able to call him after work
and be like, what was it like?
Tell me everything, you know?
So the dream scenario would be able
to share this with each other.
Every night after work,
we would chat about how exciting it was.
Ithaca's king is coming back.
Anne Hathaway plays Tom's mom
and getting to work together
was sort of a bucket list moment.
She was such a lifeline throughout this entire process.
We became really good friends really quickly.
She was like my anchor really.
Not anchor, that's not the word I'm looking for.
She wasn't pulling you down.
That's the opposite of what I'm trying to say.
She was the wind in my sails.
My dad is coming home.
