Zendaya earned a massive salary for her new movie Challengers; here's how much

Hindustan Times  

Zendaya is one of the most sought-after actors in Hollywood today. Zendaya earned $10 million to star in and produce the upcoming tennis-based movie Challengers, according to a Variety report. However, the studio, Amazon MGM, opted to delay its release to 2024 because the actors' strike prevented Zendaya and her co-stars Mike Faist and Josh O’Connor from being able to promote the movie. More about the movie “It’s a movie, and it’s tennis, but it’s not a tennis movie,” Zendaya told Variety, adding “It’s much deeper. It’s the only way they know how to communicate.” Zendaya, 27, plays Tashi Duncan, the movie’s main character, a former tennis prodigy caught in a love triangle with husband Art Donaldson and ex Patrick Zweig.
