[FIRST LOOK] “Challengers” Trailer | Zendaya Stars In Romantic Sports Film

Could the upcoming Challengers movie, starring Zendaya be a “love” fable that’ll impress hearts and minds everlastingly?

The much-anticipated first trailer for Luca Guadagnino’s next motion picture, which stars Zendaya and Josh O’Connor in what is being characterized as a romantic sports comedy, has finally been made public.

As professional tennis player Tashi, Zendaya co-stars with O’Connor and Mike Faist.

In Challengers, Tashi and her husband Art (Faist) are followed as they meet up with Patrick (O’Connor), a former foe who is also Tashi’s ex-lover and best friend. Tashi persuades Art to sign up for Challengers (a tennis tournament), but when Art finds out he’ll be facing Patrick, drama — and fierce competition — follow.

The movie’s official logline states: “Challengers” follows “three players who knew each other when they were teenagers as they compete in a tennis tournament to be the world-famous grand slam winner and reignite old rivalries on and off the court.”

Zendaya trained with former professional player and tennis instructor Brad Gilbert for three months, according to Guadagnino, who spoke with Variety.

Gilbert worked as a consultant for the movie and trained alongside Zendaya. Additionally present were director Guadagnino, Bones and All co-composers Atticus Ross and Trent Reznor, screenwriter Justin Kuritzkes (“Ticklish”), and writer Justin Kuritzkes.

Along with Guadagnino and Bernard Bellew (executive producer), Spider-Man: No Way Home producer Amy Pascal also acts as a producer on the movie.

This September, the MGM production will have its theatrical debut. The Challengers movie’s first trailer may be seen above.
