Zendaya Coleman, known professionally by the mononym Zendaya is one the most sought-after actors in Hollywood. Zendaya’s salary for her role in and production of the upcoming tennis-based movie Challengers serves as a testament to her success. As reported by Variety, she earned $10 million for her involvement in the project.
According to another report from Variety, the film “Challengers” is anticipated to gross between $12 million to $15 million in its opening weekend in North America. This steamy, R-rated movie was originally scheduled to debut at the Venice Film Festival in 2023 and hit theaters last year.
“It’s a movie, and it’s tennis, but it’s not a tennis movie,” Zendaya told Variety, adding “It’s much deeper. Tennis is just a metaphor for a lot of bigger s–t. For power. For codependency. They’re using tennis as their device to get these things out of their system. It’s the only way they know how to communicate.”
Zendaya, 27 takes the role of Tashi Duncan, the central character in the film, portraying a former tennis prodigy entangled in a love triangle with her husband, Art Donaldson played by Mike Faist, and her ex, Patrick Zweig played by Josh O’Connor.
In addition to her starring role, Zendaya is also involved in producing “Challengers” alongside Amy Pascal, Rachel O’Connor, and Guadagnino. In an interview with CNN, Zendaya shared insights into her experience transitioning into a producer.
“The more time I spend in front of the camera, the more I enjoy being behind it,” Zendaya said. She added, “Being surrounded by Luca, it helped me gain confidence. It was a beautiful place to learn and to really feel like I had a voice and a seat at the table.”
