Zendaya on The One Show

Fans were shocked and surprised to see Zendaya appear on BBC programme The One Show, with one taking to X to describe the experience as “incredibly surreal”.

Zendaya was on The One Show to talk about her upcoming film Challengers along with her co-stars Josh O’Connor and Mike Faist. She told One Show hosts Roman Kemp and Clara Amfo: “Tennis is no joke and I have such respect and admiration for the game and sport and people that play it. It is tough.”

She continued: “We keep talking about romance but I'm not sure if it is all so romantic in this film as there is co-dependence and hatred going on. I think these characters are complex and human and particularly when it comes to Tashi, she is not the easiest of person but I think there is a fragility to her and it was finding the balance with in her and understanding what is behind the shell and persona she created.”
