Marcello Hernández shoots shot with Zendaya, Tom Holland at the Emmys

Marcello Hernández turned his Emmy presentation into an unexpected invite for Zendaya and Tom Holland.

While presenting the award for Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series at the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards on Monday night, September 14, the Saturday Night Live star took the opportunity to extend a dinner invite for the newlyweds.

While on stage, he spotted the couple in the audience and seized the moment, saying, “I saw you and I wanted to play it cool, and I've decided I can't do that.”

The 29-year-old comedian and actor joked before turning his attention to the couple. “So, I would like to invite you and Spider-Man to have dinner at my house.”

He ditched the usual presenter script and boldly invited the Spider-Man: Brand New Day stars for a dinner at his house.

The unexpected shout-out prompted plenty of laughs, with the two smiling and laughing as the camera cut to them in the audience.

The playful moment came during a star-studded Emmy night at Los Angeles’ Peacock Theater, where Mariska Hargitay hosted the ceremony, which aired live on NBC and streamed on Peacock.

Zendaya and Holland’s joint appearance was itself a treat for fans, given how rarely the couple makes public appearances together.
