Actress Zendaya made a stunning appearance at the Prelude to the Olympics event held at the Louis Vuitton Foundation in Paris. The event brought together prominent figures from various fields, including tennis superstar Novak Djokovic and his wife, Jelena.
During the event, Zendaya, who stars in the upcoming tennis-themed movie “Challengers,” took the opportunity to meet Djokovic and discuss her role.

The film, which has generated significant buzz, features Zendaya engaging in intense tennis matches.
Aware of the potential scrutiny from professional athletes, Zendaya preemptively apologized to Djokovic for her tennis skills depicted in the movie. Despite her concerns, Djokovic responded graciously, saying, “No, it’s great. I love the moves.” His supportive and encouraging words reflect his appreciation for the film and Zendaya’s performance.
Zendaya’s humility and Djokovic’s graciousness highlight the mutual respect between the worlds of film and sports, as well as the excitement surrounding the intersection of these two fields at the upcoming Paris Olympics.
