Zendaya Reveals Expert Tennis Detail Serena Williams Caught In 'Challengers'
HuffPost
The star of the upcoming tennis movie described Williams as being "the best of the best."
Zendaya revealed what Serena Williams spotted while watching her upcoming romantic tennis film “Challengers” that didn’t look like something from out of the game.
“She was like, ’I know there definitely weren’t real [tennis] balls,” Zendaya said of Williams in a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight.
“She knows. She’s the best of the best.”
Zendaya, who noted that she hadn’t yet talked with Venus Williams about the film, told ET that Serena said she was great in the movie “considering that I had never, never touched a tennis ball before.”
The actor, who previously admitted that all she knew about tennis were the Williams sisters and “probably Roger Federer,” recently showed love to the sibling tennis icons last week as she paid tribute to their photoshoot for the May 1998 issue of Vogue.
