Okay, so tennis isn't exactly my go-to sport, but put it in a movie, and suddenly I'm all in! Zendaya’s recent release ‘Challengers’ has been getting some buzz lately, and I'm curious if it'll serve up the same excitement as other tennis flicks. While we wait to find out, here's a lineup of five awesome tennis films you might want to add into your watchlist.

‘7 Days in Hell’ (2015) (IMDb Rating: 7.1/10)

When it comes to making us laugh, Andy Samberg knows his stuff! ‘7 Days in Hell’ takes us on a crazy journey through a week-long tennis match between Aaron Williams (played by Samberg) and Charles Poole (played by Kit Harrington). It's wacky, it's hilarious, and it's definitely worth a watch!

‘Wimbledon’ (2004) (IMDb Rating: 6.3/10)

Will Smith nails it in ‘King Richard’ as the father of tennis legends Venus and Serena Williams. This inspiring film tells the storey of Richard's journey to guide his daughters to greatness on the court. Even if tennis isn't your thing, you can't help but root for these incredible athletes!
