Last night, there was a certain inevitability to surfing the web. At some point, somehow, your scrolling was destined to land upon a screenshot taken from Luca Guadagnino’s new film, Challengers, the trailer for which dropped yesterday evening, setting the internet on fire in the process.
The specific screenshot in question is one of Zendaya perched on the end of a bed alongside her co-stars Mike Faist and Josh O’Connor, who are both attached to her neck as the trio prepare for some kind of sexy tennis-based ménage à trois. Oh, yeah, the film is also about tennis — specifically a love triangle between three tennis pros, and knowing Guadagnino, there will be queerness, heartbreaking and actual bone-breaking in the process.
