Yesterday (July 5), the 20-year-old Oakland, CA native unveiled the black and white portrait, where she can be seen smzing to the camera, draped in a robe that falls off the shoulders while a towel covers her hair. 

The Spider-Man: Homecoming star also noted that she’s “wanted to do one of these for a long time.”
