Description


 



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. 

 

This is filmmaking turned up to 11 in a genre that doesn't usually get that drama. - Time Cogshell, FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

Challengers is a heady mix of sex, sweat, and power plays, the exact type of movie we’d hope for from Guadagnino. There are plenty of pleasures to be had, not just for these characters, but for the audience too. - Kimber Myers, Crooked Marquee
