Zendaya got heatstroke while filming 'Dune: Part 2'.
The 28-year-old actress admitted she was so worried about getting out of her full-body garment to use the toilet while shooting the sci-fi film in the desert in Jordan that she avoided drinking water and ultimately got heatstroke.
She told W magazine: "We were in Jordan. It was very hot, and I remember thinking, 'Oh, man, the bathrooms are so far away,' because we had to hike to the locations. If you have to pee, you need at least 10 minutes to get out of the costumes. I was like, Damn, I don't want to drink too much water. I had such a fear of peeing myself or s******* myself, honestly, in the suit on set.
"One day, I didn't drink enough and I had a heatstroke. I felt so barfy. I remember calling my mom on the bathroom floor, saying, 'I feel terrible.' She was like, 'Did you drink water today?' I said no. I thought I was being smart, but you can't do that. So, lesson learned."
In the movie, based on the novel by Frank Herbert, Zendaya's character, Fremen warrior Chani, wears a stillsuit, a full-body garment that recycles your waste so that you can stay hydrated in the desert.
Speaking previously about the costume, Zendaya told Total Film: "The suits are not ideal. I wish it was real. I wish it had a cooling system, and turned our bodily fluids into water, and that you could pee in it. But you can't."
