Tennis player turned coach Tashi has transformed her husband, Art, into a world-famous Grand Slam champion. To snap him out of his recent losing streak, she enters him into a “Challenger” event, where he faces his former best friend and Tashi’s ex-boyfriend. Directed by Luca Guadagnino, “Challengers” stars Zendaya as Tashi Duncan, a former tennis prodigy turned coach. Married to Art, who is struggling with his game, Tashi’s plan for his redemption takes an unexpected turn when he squares off against his former friend Patrick, portrayed by Josh O’Connor. As their pasts collide and tensions rise, Tashi must weigh the cost of victory.
“A funny, tempestuous, and exuberantly lusty story about how three athletic demigods see their destinies upended. And Guadagnino tells it the way he knows best, with a sometimes exasperating but ultimately irresistible surfeit of style.” – Justin Chang, New Yorker
“It’s far more thrilling, and triumphant, than a simple tale of someone lifting a trophy, or love conquering all.”
– David Sims, The Atlantic
