Zendaya stars in the CHALLENGERS movie alongside The Crown's Josh O'Connor and Miek Faist. Directed by Luca Guadagnino (Call Me By Your Name, Suspira), Zendaya plays Tashi, a former tennis prodigy turned coach and a force of nature who manipulates her husband and former boyfriend against each other. Zendaya worried the character may not be likable given Tashi's questionable methods.

CHALLENGERS hits movie theaters on April 26. 

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 – West Side Story), 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 –The Crown) – 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.
