Tom Holland’s Cute Training Sessions: How He Helped Zendaya Prepare for Challengers

BBG News

As a die-hard movie fan here, I must say Tom Holland and Zendaya set the bar high for on-screen romance turned real-life love story. From their casual start as co-stars in Spider-Man to blossoming into an engaged duo at the beginning of this year, I’m eagerly anticipating their wedding day. Not only is Holland devoted to his fiancée off-camera, but he also shows his support by going the extra mile for her roles, like when he helped prepare her for her sports movie Challengers in a sweet and thoughtful way.

The film “Challengers,” available on your Amazon Prime subscription, is a movie that inspires you to learn the sport after watching it. Tom Holland shared with the Chase Travel Court Club (through Vogue) that he couldn’t secure the position of ball boy during his school days at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. Despite this setback, he didn’t hesitate to assist Zendaya in preparing for her tennis role in their apartment basement and even attended her training camp sessions.

At times, I’d let her have some tennis balls and we’d engage in a lively match. I’m always amazed by her enthusiasm for the game.

Zendaya truly poured all her feelings onto the tennis court as she portrayed the character of Tashi. Interestingly, despite not enjoying physical training for her previous roles, she recognized it was crucial given that her character was meant to be a talented tennis prodigy. Consequently, the actress who stars in Euphoria had to master the movements fitting for one.

For three months, Zendaya dedicated her efforts towards mastering form, footwork, and perfecting her swings so she could convincingly hit a virtual ball in post-production. It’s fascinating to learn that Tom Holland assisted her in honing the physical aspects of her character for the movie “Challengers,” as he was one of her trainers.

On Amazon Prime Video, you can enjoy Challengers with a 30-day free trial. After that, it’s $14.99 per month, or get a 22% discount by paying $139 annually in advance. Check out the deal here.

Tom Holland, the British actor, displayed his backing for his Spider-Man co-star in different ways. On the day following its premiere, he boosted his partner’s movie with an affectionate Instagram post featuring the Challengers poster. It was also observed that Tom Holland was watching Zendaya on the red carpet of her sports-drama film the next day, and she graciously waved to him. Having such a supportive boyfriend who champions your work and stands by you every step is truly invaluable.

The most recent update about the newly-engaged influential duo is that they are apparently encountering significant difficulties in organizing their wedding due to their busy professional commitments. A source claims that it’s challenging for them to coordinate a suitable date for both families to gather and exchange their vows.

On a positive note, Zendaya and Tom Holland will continue to work together despite Zendaya’s reportedly diminished role in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. They are also set to join forces for Christopher Nolan’s upcoming film, The Odyssey. This shared work schedule offers them more opportunities for their professional lives to intersect and enjoy spending time together as a couple.

Tom Holland might not be a professional tennis player himself, but it makes their collaboration on the tennis movie “Challengers” even more delightful for him to assist his girlfriend in training. His encouragement underscores his unwavering support and enthusiasm for her achievements. It’s clear that he isn’t just her partner; he’s her most ardent supporter.
