Despite having so many projects in the works, there's still one director Zendaya hasn't had the chance to work with.

During her time on the couch, Jennifer Hudson asked if there are any directors she really wants to work with-a question Zendaya had an immediate answer for. "I would love to work with Ryan Coogler," Zendaya said, noting that she and Coogler were born in Oakland, California.
