Zendaya’s upcoming new film, Challengers, promises to dish heavy on the drama and entanglements.
Directed and produced by Luca Guadagnino, the story centers on a once great tennis star (Zendaya) forced to retire after an injury whose transition to becoming a coach leads her down a intertangled romantic road that she has to figure out.
Per the movie synopsis:
From visionary filmmaker Luca Guadagnino, Challengers stars Zendaya as Tashi Duncan, a former tennis prodigy turned coach and a force of nature who makes no apologies for her game on and off the court. Married to a champion on a losing streak (Mike Faist), Tashi’s strategy for her husband’s redemption takes a surprising turn when he must face off against the washed-up Patrick (Josh O’Connor) – his former best friend and Tashi’s former boyfriend. As their pasts and presents collide, and tensions run high, Tashi must ask herself, what will it cost to win.
Challengers hits theaters on April 26.
