The trailer for Zendaya's new film, which teases a threesome and a love triangle, has taken the internet by storm.
The 26-year-old actor's upcoming film Challengers sees the Euphoria star take on the role of a tennis player who becomes involved in a tricky love and career situation.
She plays Tashi Duncan, a renowned tennis player who catches the attention of two other tennis stars, Patrick (Josh O’Connor) and Art (Mike Faist).

Set to the tune of dramatic remix of Rihanna’s ‘S&M’, the trailer covers the course of Tashi’s career and the horrific leg injury which takes her out of the game.
Years after the injury, which happens while Tashi is on the court, we see her doing double duty as Art’s wife and coach.
The situation reaches new levels of awkwardness when Art, who is described in the official synopsis as a ‘champion on a losing streak’, must face off against the ‘washed-up’ Patrick, his former BFF and Tashi’s former boyfriend.
Let the drama commence!
Ever since the trailer dropped on Tuesday evening (20 June), the internet has gone wild over one scene in which all three players are seen getting flirty in a bedroom. Tashi Beckons both men to join her on the bed before seductively kissing both of them on the lips one after the other.
If that wasn’t enough to make fans hot under the collar, viewers were sent into a frenzy when Zendaya says the cheeky line: "I’m taking such good care of my little white boys."
Fans on rushed to Twitter to share their thoughts and the tweets are hilarious.
"Tashi saying 'I’m taking such good care of my little white boys' sent me into oblivion," one fan shared. "I know zendaya busted out laughing after saying that,"
Another fan mused: "Oh to be one of Zendaya’s 'little white boys'…"
A third social media user commented: "Zendaya saying 'I’m taking good care of my little white boys' single-handedly ended me, I’m so serious."
Other fans are already calling for the Dune actress to get an Oscar for upcoming film. "'Im taking such good care of my little white boys' oh Zendaya that Oscar already has your name on it."
The risqué flick is directed Luca Guadagnino, who is best known for directing Call Me by Your Name and Bones and All, both of which star Zendaya's friend and Dune co-star Timothée Chalamet.
Challengers will be released in cinemas on 15 September.
