"The playlist was something like a 2008 dance playlist," Chalamet said. "If you were into that era, Lil Wayne, T-Pain, 'High School Musical,' stuff like that."

According to Chalamet, their costars Javier Bardem and Jason Momoa even joined the dance parties.

"Anybody who knows this man knows that he travels with sound," Zendaya said of Chalamet during the pair's virtual interview with "Good Morning America."

"There's always some kind of music emanating from his pocket or a small speaker that he carries with him," she continued. "So he definitely started with the tunes, I hosted in my dressing room, and then we had a few people attending our little party, one being Javier Bardem."

During another interview, Chalamet joked that Zendaya's biggest celebrity crush was Tom Holland.

Holland and Zendaya were spotted kissing in a car earlier this year after long-standing dating rumors.

During a game of rapid-fire questions for Buzzfeed's BFF quiz, Chalamet was prompted to guess Zendaya's celebrity crush.

"Easy, Tom Holland!" he said. The "Euphoria" star then burst into laughter before admitting that Chalamet kept his celebrity crush a "secret."

Chalamet and Zendaya's friendship is definitely the highlight of the "Dune" press tour.
