- Tom Holland made his first-ever Emmys appearance, sitting behind Zendaya in the audience during Marcello Hernández's best-director-for-a-comedy presentation.
- Marcello Hernández broke from his presenting duties to gush over Zendaya, inviting her and "Spider-Man" to dinner at his house in a live on-air moment.
- Zendaya received her sixth and final Emmy nomination — outstanding lead actress in a drama for "Euphoria," a category she has already won twice for playing Rue.
- Law Roach retracted his prior claim that Holland and Zendaya married earlier this spring, saying no official ceremony has happened, that social-media wedding content is false, and that the ceremony is planned after the "Dune" press tour.
- "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" has grossed $923 million domestically, on track to overtake "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" ($936 million) as the highest-grossing domestic film of all time.
- Zendaya told Fandango in March she plans to "go into hiding for a little bit," worried she'll wear out her welcome after a year that included co-starring with Holland in both "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" and "The Odyssey."
Why it matters: Law Roach's on-record retraction of the secret spring wedding ends a months-long tabloid narrative, while the $923 million domestic run of "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" — closing in on the all-time domestic record — shows the couple at their commercial peak, which Zendaya herself flagged by announcing she'll "go into hiding for a little bit."
