Zendaya's new film 'Challengers,' a tennis-themed romantic drama, has made a significant impact at the box office, grossing $15 million on its opening weekend against very little competition. The film, which features Zendaya in a role involving a love triangle, started with $1.9 million in Thursday previews and continued to draw audiences, leading to a $6.2 million haul on opening day. The movie's success was driven by strong critical reception, with a 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, enthusiastic support from Zendaya's fanbase, and premium format ticket sales. 'Challengers' is directed by Luca Guadagnino and its performance has set a new opening weekend record for Zendaya.
