Zendaya isn't just creating acting buzz with her 2024 Challengers movie. Embracing method dressing for a series of appearances promoting the tennis-themed movie this year, the former Disney star has managed to work her way to the top of nearly every fashion outlet's best-dressed list, and it looks like fans on Instagram agree with the status. In April, W Magazine shared a red carpet photo of the 27-year-old as she attended the London, U.K. premiere of Challengers, and it was a flawless look from head to toe.

'Didn't Know Anything About Tennis'

Zendaya has admitted that she was thrown into a world she did not know as she landed her Tashi Duncan role in Challengers. 

"I didn’t know anything about tennis, to be honest. So I just threw myself in there. I’ve pretty much seen every video, every match that’s online, every compilation, every interview. It became my thing. Anytime I wasn’t at work, I was watching something. My Instagram became full of tennis stuff," she told Variety.

"I’m learning how to play tennis, and I’m seeing like these little kids on Instagram — like, 10 — absolutely professional. I’m like, “Wow, I’m terrible!” she continued. Looks like Zendaya's latest project will 100% boost her current net worth of $22 million.
