Mike Faist, Zendaya and Josh O'Connor

 

Luca Guadagnino’s Challengers opens April 26 (get your tickets here!), bringing us the story of a love triangle between three intertwined tennis players. It’s a big, ambitious story, and that calls for a Fandango Big Ticket Interview!
 
Fandango’s Big Ticket interview series features in-depth conversations with the casts and creators of the biggest movies around. Fandango correspondent Jacqueline Coley sat down with stars Zendaya, Josh O’Connor and Mike Faist to serve up the kind of behind-the-scenes details you won’t get anywhere else.
 
Why has Zendaya nicknamed Challengers “Co-Dependency: The Movie”? Why is tennis the perfect backdrop to the story? What kind of rehearsal and training goes into creating the characters of professional tennis players? What did Zendaya bring to the movie as a producer? See the conversation below for the answers, and be sure to get your tickets for Challengers right here on Fandango.
