Challengers- zendaya as a tennis athlete

Anonymous
Word on the street is everyone thinks she has a weight problem and is concerned.

So no need to hear about 50+ yo SAH women thinking they’re 27.

Make your own Entitled Housewife thread. Sip, grip, rip with the gierlz!

Asians are super skinny and long torsos sometimes.


I’m not Asian, but I do play tennis with/against a lot of Asian women. Many of them extremely talented tennis players. Also, many of them with same build as Zendaya.

Meant zendaya. Not you. You’re too loud and obnoxious to be Asian.

Omg. Lol. Sounds like you need to go on a diet.

Really who cares. Stop policing other women's bodies. If she wants to be super skinny that's no her. MYOB.

What I noticed is that her form (meaning, tennis technique) leaves a lot to be desired. My coach would have a field day with her trying to correct her form.


In your dreams, do you, a menopausal woman, have the same build as Zendaya. Lol.


Like I said, I’m not as tall as her, but otherwise yes.

Not everyone middle age is obese. Go to any USTA league match or tennis club and you will see lots of very fit women with similar body shape.


No one’s talking about obese people. Oh the delusion to compare your 55 year old mom body to a 27 year old IT girl.


When you are obese, you think everyone who is a normal weight is emaciated and unhealthy. Look at photos of POWs or anorexics..they are emaciated. This IT girl is not. It’s you who has deluded yourself into thinking fat is healthy (and, therefore, everyone fit is unhealthy).


THIS.

She may or may not have lost weight, she's always been very skinny. But she's not emaciated or starving. She works a lot and is particularly well known for her red carpet looks. Regardless of whether a real tennis player would look like her, she was cast because she looks like Zendaya so she went ahead and looked like herself in the movie. Guess what, movies are not real life.

She's 5'10" and 28 years old and is naturally thin. I know this is enraging to some of you but some people are just built that way (see, for instance, pretty much all high fashion models who are not plus size). I'm sorry you were not born with her body but oh well. It doesn't mean she's starving. She looks happy and perfectly healthy.

I used to be as thin as her. Some people are born that way. Maybe they should have cast someone different. But I don't think it's her fault.


We’ll find out in a couple years what was actually going on.

Who cast this?

It’s distracting and too fake. She looks anorexic.

Maybe she’ll sell more tickets sure, but she’s a total lightweight to be playing an athlete. Should have done what the williams sister/will smith movie casting route - at least pick someone more believable as a tennis pro.


OP! Thank you for starting this thread. I completely agree with your view.

That was a biopic. This is fiction movie and the main point is not actually the tennis. Have we been so deprived of a range of different movies other than Marvel to not understand that?

Paltry.

Goes to so how much streaming has demolished the box office.

Why didn’t this debut at a film festival?

Irrelevant. Lots of actresses could have placed the sexy scenes and the tennis scenes and not looked anorexic.
Bad casting.
Clearly they wanted zendaya to do her Europhoria seduction acting come hell or high water.
