Zendaya is set to be seen in an R-rated movie next. The Euphoria actress quickly earned credits for her work in the HBO show. After earning a Golden Globes award, she is ready to jump from the small screen to leading on the big screen. The flick is already making rounds in the news for being a mix of romance and comedy despite being a sports film called Challengers.

Italian filmmaker Luca Guadagnino will direct the movie. Bones and Call, Call Me by Your Name, The Staggering, etc are movies that give a glimpse into the kind of movies he makes. But the upcoming one is supposed to be an R-rated film. Here is a look into the much-anticipated flick.

What will the Zendaya starring Challengers be about?

Looking at Guadagnino’s work, one can tell how a lot of his movies are focused on younger characters. Film updates took to Twitter to announce how the movie will be R-rated. Steamy scenes, graphic language, and nudity will add to the movie. The former Disney actress will be starring in the adult flick with Mike Faist and Josh O’Connor. Fans have already seen the actor’s potential as a young Prince Charles in Netflix’s The Crown. Faist, on the other hand, is a Grammy Award winner known for his musical Dear Evan Hansen.

The movie will be sports-centric revolving around the world of tennis. Will Smith’s King Richards was one of the few recent movies to bring focus to the underrated sport. It is speculated that the story will be about a player turned coach named Tashi who helps her partner and player for a match. Things get serious as he prepares to face his former best friend and Tashi’s former flame in the game.

Twitter hails the Challengers’ celebrated cast

Seeing these three stars together on the big screen is certainly going to be a thrill, and fans know it. People took to Twitter to express their thoughts about the cast of the 2023 movie Challengers.

Since Josh O’Connor has done n*de scenes before, many take a guess of him doing it again.

Zendaya reportedly has a no-nudity clause in her contract, which would keep her from doing risque scenes.

After collecting several accolades, fans feel that the actress will be marching toward the Oscars with this upcoming flick. As for the movie, it is set to release on 11th August 2023.
