The Big Picture Director Luca Guadagnino’s romantic sports drama Challengersdebuted on digital platforms this week, having just passed a significant box office milestone. The well-reviewed film, starring Zendaya, Josh O’Connor and Mike Faist, was released in domestic theaters not too long ago on April 26, and less than a month later, is available to rent at home.
Challengersopened at the number one spot domestically with $15 million, before dropping to number three in its second weekend, and retaining the third position on the weekend after that. The movie was originally supposed to be released last year, with a grand premiere planned at the Venice Film Festival, but it was pulled at the last minute because of the SAG-AFTRA strike. Like Zendaya’s other major release this year, Dune: Part Two, it was delayed by several months.
Challengers follows the intersecting lives of three young tennis professionals — two of them players and one a coach — who find themselves romantically entangled with each other across a decade. Guadagnino makes top use of Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross’ thumping background score, while utilizing a non-linear editing style that would make Christopher Nolan blush. You can watch the movie in theaters and at home, and stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
