Zendaya’s In A Steamy Love Triangle In Luca Guadanino’s Challengers Trailer
Josh O’Connor and Mike Faist fight it out on the tennis court — and in the bedroom.
Visionary filmmaker Luca Guadagnino’s previous films Call Me By Your Name and Bones And All have made him a forever gay favorite — and his latest film isn’t going to change that any time soon.
Challengers stars queer fave Zendaya as Tashi Duncan, a former tennis prodigy turned coach after a career-ending injury. She’s a force of nature who makes no apologies and takes no prisoners on or off the court. After engaging in a complicated and steamy love triangle with two friends (Mike Faist and Josh O’Connor) in their teens, things become complicated again years later when they all face off again.

Married to Art (Feist, West Side Story), who’s now a champion on a losing streak, Tashi has a strategy for her husband’s redemption. It takes a shocking turn, however, when Art finds himself facing off against the washed-up Patrick (O’Connor, God’s Own Country), his once best friend turned rival (and Tashi’s former boyfriend). Tension runs high when this reunion reignites the past and tangles the present, leaving Tashi to ask herself what it will cost to win.

In other words, the drama and sexiness are at a fevered pitch and we can’t wait to see how it all plays out.
