Zendaya says her new film Challengers has gifted her the 'most unapologetically cruel and direct' character she has ever played. The Spider-Man actress attended the UK premiere of the Luca Guadagnino movie in London on Wednesday. Speaking to Sky News, she says it is a joy to have added Tashi Donaldson to her acting portfolio. 'She is so complex, complicated and messy, and I appreciate that about a character,' explains the 27-year-old. 'I don't think you always love her.
' The Dune actress stars alongside The Crown's Josh O'Connor and Tony award-nominee Mike Faist, who play two tennis players besotted with Zendaya's Tashi. Guadagnino, who previously directed Timothee Chalamet's Call Me By Your Name and Bones And All, is at the helm of the project.
