All Worked Up By 'Challengers'? Here Are 10 Similarly Sexy Movies to Watch Next, According to Vogue Staff - Vogue

The verdict is in: Luca Guadagnino’s Challengers, starring Zendaya, Josh O’Connor, and Mike Faist, is a rollicking sports drama, sure, but it’s also simply one of the sexiest movies to hit theaters in a very long time. (Okay, at least since last summer’s Passages, from Ira Sachs. That was sexy, too.)

Guadagnino knows how to set a heady scene: His second feature film, 2005’s Melissa P., was a full-on erotic drama, and in the years since then he’s made audiences hot under the collar with the likes of 2009’s I Am Love, 2015’s A Bigger Splash (a riff on Jacques Deray’s La Piscine, from 1969, one of the hottest movies there is), 2017’s Call Me By Your Name, and even his 2022 cannibal road movie Bones and All. Yet the Italian director–screenwriter’s various contributions represent but a drop in the bucket of sexy cinema; the genre, such as it is, has thrived and writhed for about as long as people have gone to the movies.

Lucky for you, dear reader, Vogue’s staff has a few ideas for what to queue up next after you’ve seen Challengers’s three leads all make out. Herewith, find some of our favorite sexy movies and scenes from all of filmdom.
