Robert Pattinson looked nearly unrecognizable with a blond, curly wig and smudged red lipstick worn for his Interview cover story photoshoot published on Tuesday, Feb. 17

Robert Pattinson, is that you?

The actor, 39, experimented with his appearance in a photoshoot opposite Zendaya, 29, for their cover story for Interview, which sees The Drama costars ask each other questions about working together on their new film.

Pattinson slipped on a blond, curly wig for the shoot alongside the Emmy-winning actress, who wore a lengthier wig with low-sitting pig tails in a similar hue for a transformative look of her own. Their lips were bright red, Pattinson's smeared on and bleeding onto his surrounding skin.

The cover shot saw Zendaya clinging to the Twilight star's back, wrapping her arms around his upper body and her left leg around his lower half, which he cradled with both of his hands as he looked deadpan at the camera.

For Pattinson's part, he wore a flirty spaghetti-strapped top in an ivory shade, lined with white lace along the top and complete with a dainty bow stitched onto the center at his chest. His burgundy trousers were unbuttoned and unzipped, peeling back a tad at the flap.

Not much was seen of Zendaya's outfit, which was largely hidden behind her co-star's physique. All that's visible was her white Chloé lace sleeve on her right shoulder and a few rings that shimmered on her fingers that held the actor.

Photographed by Nadia Lee Cohen, the shoot for Interview was styled by Zendaya’s longtime stylist Law Roach as well as the magazine's editor-in-chief Mel Ottenberg.

The images within the story are rather interpretive, with one featuring a gender-bending shot of both costars in coordinating suit sets. A straddling Pattinson is standing over a sprawled-out Zendaya, who lies on the floor beneath him.

Another photo captured the Euphoria star's cover outfit in full, revealing her lace white dress with massive ruffled cuffs and a plunging-V neckline. Her face makeup was exaggerated with rosy cheeks and red lips — a stark contrast to her bold, black mascara on her eyes.

A fourth picture saw Pattinson in head-to-toe Valentino, including a draped shirt in a greenish hue that matches the wallpaper he leans on with a cigarette in hand for the shoot. He paired it with brown trousers and bare feet.

Zendaya and Pattinson twin for a fifth photo, each wearing similar floral dresses in blue. This time the Spider-Man actress stood tall, while the Die My Love actor clung to her while on his knees.

The two are costarring in three movies this year: The Drama, Dune: Part Three and The Odyssey, which also stars Zendaya's fiancé, Tom Holland.

During their interview, the pair recalled their first impressions of one another when they met for the first time.

"Truthfully, I met you because we had common friends, and you were always pretty quiet and chill," Zendaya said. "You didn’t say much, and I was like, 'Ooh, mysterious!' Then I talked to Tom and he was like, 'No, he’s super fun and always laughing and joking,' and I was like, 'Really? I haven’t experienced that side of him, I guess.'”

"That’s so depressing. I wish I could stay in the mysterious. I’ve learned again and again that if you just don’t speak, people are like, 'Wow. You’re really intimidating,' but I just can’t f---ing maintain it," said Pattinson.

"You maintained it for a while, until we made a few movies together," Zendaya replied.

The Drama hits theaters on April 6.
