Zendaya has sent the internet into several frenzies in the past. This time, however, Zendaya has fans talking over an all-new trailer for her upcoming film Challengers. The upcoming romantic comedy-drama has so many fans excited that they’ve been creating a series of memes on Twitter dedicated to the film.
There are numerous reasons that the trailer has fans talking. In addition to Zendaya’s own role in the film, there’s a use of Rihanna’s S&M in a brand-new remix, and a surprising threesome between Zendaya and two boys. This is certainly a new direction when compared with her parts in Spider-Man and Dune.
A few examples of the memes that social media users have created can be seen below:

As you can see, some users even made reference to Zendaya’s real-life boyfriend, Tom Holland. Here’s the trailer for the film starring Zendaya that has all these social media users talking:
Luca Guadagnino directed the film which was written by Justin Kuritzkes.
Other than Zendaya, the film stars Mike Faist and Josh O’Connor. The synopsis for the highly-anticipated project is as follows:
“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.”
The film Challengers is set to have its premiere at the 80th Venice Film Festival in September 2023. It will then be released in cinemas nationwide for fans to see on September 15, 2023. Stay tuned to ScreenGeek for any additional updates as we have them.
