Zendaya says 'K.C. Undercover' will likely end with Season 3

Aug. 10 (UPI) -- K.C. Undercover star Zendaya says the show will likely end with Season 3.

The 20-year-old actress, who plays K.C. Cooper on the Disney Channel series, explained in an interview with Entertainment Tonight that both she and her character are growing up.

"I'm assuming [it's the last season] just because I'm growing up and there's a lot of other things I want to do in my career," Zendaya said at Variety's Power of Young Hollywood event Tuesday.

"K.C.'s growing up, she's becoming a young woman. There's been a lot of talk this season about her going to college and moving on and moving in different directions in her life," she added. "So, I think so."

Zendaya is also known for portraying Rocky Blue on the Disney Channel series Shake It Up. She made her film debut in Spider-Man: Homecoming this year, and will next star in The Greatest Showman with Zac Efron.

"There were a lot of opportunities that weren't really what I wanted to do," the star said in Variety's Power of Young Hollywood issue of branching out to movies. "I think a lot of people look at me in a certain way because I've been on the Disney Channel a long time."

"I would much rather have one line in a great movie than be the lead of a [expletive] one," she added. "I wanted to wait for the right thing."

K.C. Undercover returned for a third season in July.
