was reading through parts of the original screenplay for challengers and some of the details and dialogue that was included in it but ultimately cut are !!!!!!! INSANE!!!! like god it is SO rich!!!!!

#there are sooo many things i WISH they hadnt cut #but also i do love a lot of what they ended up changing things to in the final version of the film #like i WISH they kept the art having trouble getting it up scenes lol #and some of the specific lines between tashi and patrick in the scene where he asks her to be his coach —#those went S O hard like even harder than what made it into the movie #and then some of the dialogue between patrick and art too!!!#ALSO!!!! theres a lily scene in the screenplay where art and tashi are watching back the junior open final between art and patrick #and lily asks who arts playing against and tashi says his old friend or whatever and lily says hes good and #O U G H art just stares stonily at the screen after that #i wouldve killed for some of this to make it in #sooo many good replacements/additions tho #like the hotel scene not originally existing!!!! wild bc that scene IS the core of the whole movie #that was a great decision adding it tho bc the og does NOT hit as hard #ANYWAYS #love this movie love the screenplay love it ALL #challengers
