The best player in the world is playing a tiny Challenger because he’s coming off an injury, needs his confidence back, and therefore wants some cupcake wins leading up to the U.S. Our story opens on the beginning of a tennis match between 6-time Grand Slam champion, 33 year old, Art Donaldson, and 32 year old tennis journeyman, Patrick Zweig, playing the finals of a Challenger (low-level) tournament in the middle of nowhere. Let us find out together, if this is finally the first good tennis screenplay. The pieces indicate literally ANYTHING is possible. I am soooooooo so so so very interested in if this script is actually good. But since then, I’ve fallen in love with Euphoria, and now consider myself a Zendaya fan. Four months ago I wouldn’t have cared about that.
#BRAVE DISNEY SCRIPT PDF MOVIE#
A legit good tennis movie that focuses on tennis has not happened yet.Īdding some spice to the dish is that Zendaya is starring. It’s a movie about a crazy dad who turns his daughters into tennis players. In fact, tennis movies still have an 0-19 track record in cinema.Īnd yes, I’m including King Richard, which I don’t consider to be a tennis movie. And even when they do – Woody Allen – the movie isn’t any good. Well respected critically acclaimed directors don’t typically direct tennis movies. In this case, I’m insanely curious because it’s a tennis script……… directed by Luca Guadagnino. So when a tennis script comes around, I’m more curious than usual. To give you a peek behind the curtain, I had the Miami Open on Tennis Channel playing, literally, on a loop, all last week.
And anybody who knows me, knows I’m a tennis guy. This time, however, I know a little about the script. I do this so I can judge every script equally. All the stuff you read in the “About” section is usually research I do after I’ve read the script. I have no idea who wrote them or where they came from. And I love tennis so I’m here for it! The writer is brand new.ĭetails: 128 pages (lots of dialogue, though, so it doesn’t read that long) Premise: Two former best friends, at opposite ends of their sport’s success spectrum, take each other on in a match for the ages in front of the woman they both love.Ībout: Big one here! Zendaya in a tennis movie! With “Call Me By Your Name” director Luca Guadagnino directing! That may be the most unorthodox trio of elements (Zendaya, tennis, Luca Guadagnino) I’ve ever seen in a project.
