Zendaya, Luca Guadagnino, Josh O'Connor ja Mike Faist puhuvat rakkaudesta, kateudesta ja tenniksestä uudessa elokuvassa 'Challengers'. Lue lisää!

Tennisdraama 'Challengers' vie katsojat mukaansa Zendayan, Luca Guadagninon, Josh O'Connorin ja Mike Faistin tähdittämään rakkauden kolmioon tenniksen taustalla. Elokuvassa ajan hyppely kuljettaa katsojat yli 15 vuoden ajanjakson, seuraten kolmea päähenkilöä, jotka taistelevat niin rakkauden kuin kilpailunkin kentillä. Zendaya loistaa roolissaan, jota ohjaa Luca Guadagnino.

Kriitikoiden ylistämä 'Challengers' tarjoaa katsojilleen seksikkään saippuaoopperan tenniksen pyörteissä. Elokuva paljastaa tenniksen huippu-urheilijoiden inhimilliset puolet ja kietoo ympärilleen koukuttavan draaman. Zendaya, Mike Faist ja Josh O'Connor loistavat näyttelijäsuorituksissaan, jotka tempaavat mukaansa niin rakkausdraaman kuin kilpailukenttien maailmaan.

Zendayan tähdittämä 'Challengers' herättää kiinnostusta myös muotimaailmassa, kun elokuvassa nähdään luksusbrändejä keskeisessä roolissa. Tashi Duncan ja Art Donaldson kuvastavat tenniksen ja luksusbrändien yhteistyötä, tuoden esiin urheilun ja muodin yllättävän yhteyden.

Luca Guadagninon ohjaama 'Challengers' tarjoaa katsojilleen poikkeuksellisen katsauksen tenniksen maailmaan, yhdistäen draaman, rakkauen ja kilpailun elementit mestarillisella tavalla.
