    This past weekend, Challengers hit theaters, and let's just say it's already one of the most talked about movies of 2024.

    Directed by Luca Guadagnino and written by Justin Kuritzkes, Challengers follows Tashi Duncan (Zendaya), a former tennis prodigy turned coach, who turns her husband Art Donaldson (Mike Faist) into a champion. However, to overcome a losing streak, he must face his ex-best friend Patrick Zweig (Josh O'Connor) and Tashi's ex-boyfriend.

    Since reviews for Challengers started hitting the internet, people are calling it a "sexy tennis thriller," with many praising Zendaya's star power coupled with standout performances from Mike and Josh.

    The film earned $15 million at the US box office opening weekend, which is a huge achievement for a Luca Guadagnino film, with many audience members reporting that the main reason why they went to see the movie was for Zendaya.

    I can’t stop thinking about Challengers. My whole life is consumed. Just called an Uber (like in Challengers) working on my laptop (Zendaya works on a laptop in Challengers) kissing a man (wish I were doing this in front of Zendaya) etc.
