They are two of the most famous people on the planet and icons of Generation Z. That’s why Zendaya and Tom Holland’s visit is stirring up Madrid. A romantic and professional couple, the two Hollywood stars are in the capital to promote the July 29 release of their upcoming film, Spider-Man: Brand New Day. However, their schedule in our country includes more points of interest for their millions of fans.

Zendaya and Tom Holland, who are visiting Spain for the first time since the persistent rumors of their secret wedding began, posed this afternoon with very bright smiles at the photocall for Marvel’s upcoming big release. Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The couple appeared very affectionate and in sync in front of the photographers, but both refused to be photographed beyond the photocall.

After this press encounter, the next appointment will be at Colón. There, Tom Holland (initially without Zendaya) will inaugurate the Selección Square before the debut of our national team in the 2026 World Cup. The squad coached by Luis de la Fuente plays today at six in the afternoon against Cape Verde, and the presence of the British actor will serve as a luxury appetizer for this first match alongside his Spanish followers.

This central venue will feature giant screens, an official store, and a trophy exhibition museum. The appointment with Tom Holland, with free entry and open until full capacity, has been advertised with the motto: “Madrid, we have a mission.” It is expected that the couple will arrive at 16:40 at Colón, where they will pose again for the press, conduct a few interviews and, finally, come on stage to greet the fans and wish our national team luck.

Zendaya, Tom Holland, and their dinner in Madrid

After the visit of Pope Leo XIV and Bad Bunny’s long stay, it is now Zendaya and Tom Holland who have been tasked with filling Madrid’s quota of high-profile stars making a stopover in the city. For the moment, their presence in the capital has not gone unnoticed, as upon their arrival they dined at a small restaurant in the La Latina neighborhood and the staff shared the image on their social networks.

Extremely discreet about their private lives, Zendaya and Tom Holland have been playing the romantic interests of the Spider-Man franchise, Peter Parker and MJ, since 2017. It wasn’t until 2021 that they confirmed they were in a relationship after years of intermittent rumors about their possible romance. In 2025, it was made public that they had become engaged after the Euphoria lead flashed her engagement ring during the Golden Globes ceremony.

For several months now, there has been speculation that the two actors had married in secret. The one who advanced the supposed news was Zendaya’s stylist, Law Roach, when he joked with reporters during the 2026 Actors Awards that the wedding “had already taken place.” In addition, the couple has been seen wearing simple gold wedding bands on their left ring finger.

El Hormiguero with Zendaya and Tom Holland

The highlight of the actors’ trip to Spain will be their appearance on El Hormiguero this Tuesday. “There is no one more famous in the world”, asserted the ants Trancas and Barrancas when Pablo Motos announced their visit to the show. The imminent release of their new film, coupled with rumors about their wedding, will likely turn this interview into one of the most-watched in the history of El Hormiguero.

Zendaya and Tom Holland are enjoying one of the most successful years of their careers. Alongside the new Spider-Man movie, this summer will also see the release of another highly anticipated film in which they both star: The Odyssey by Christopher Nolan. The American actress has also just successfully concluded her run in the series Euphoria and, at the end of the year, we will see her under Denis Villeneuve’s direction in the third installment of the Dune saga.
