The star of Zendaya continues to ascend with the new sports romantic drama Challengers.<\/p>\n

The official plot synopsis reads: \u201cTashi, a former tennis prodigy turned coach is married to a champion on a losing streak. Her strategy for her husband\u2019s redemption takes a surprising turn when he must face off against his former best friend and Tashi\u2019s former boyfriend.\u201d<\/p>\n

Well, that just sounds positively ripe for drama \u2013 and it isn\u2019t even based on a true story<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking to RadioTimes.com<\/a> and other press at the UK premiere, Zendaya revealed<\/a>: \u201cWe did have our own version of tennis school. We did many many weeks of tennis training together.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added: \u201c[Tennis training was] followed by workouts together, followed by rehearsals together, so it allowed us the time to really, I don\u2019t know, not just bond, but really communicate and understand these characters more and talk and figure it out.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd also, I feel like we created our little bubble, our little group.\u201d<\/p>\n

And the chemistry is clear to see on-screen if our positive review<\/a> is anything to go by.<\/p>\n
