Zendaya Responds to Fans Mocking the Spider-Man: Far from Home Poster
Zendaya is responding to memes about the Spider-Man: Far from Home poster.
After the IMAX poster for Spider-Man: Far from Home was released earlier this week, social media users began to poke fun at its Photoshop look by creating their own homemade versions of the poster — but Zendaya, who plays Michelle “MJ” Jones in the Marvel movies, did not appear to be a fan.
Responding to one user’s creation on Thursday, the Euphoria star, 22, tweeted a simple “….”
The memes began to crop up this week, as Twitter users put their Photoshop and Microsoft Paint skills to the test while jokingly mocking the IMAX poster, which many people called out for having awkwardly photoshopped in Jake Gyllenhaal and Samuel L. Jackson‘s characters.
“We had these ICONIC imax posters,” one user wrote, referring to previous posters for Marvel movies including Ant-Man and the Wasp. “What happened with [Far from Home]?”
“It looks like a scrapbook page,” a second person responded.

“Sony’s Spider-Man Far from Home posters just keep getting better wow,” one user captioned their homemade poster, while another wrote cheekily, “The Spider-Man: Far from Home poster creators are at it again.”
