King Richard is a sports biopic about the early days of superstar tennis champions Venus

and Serena Williams.

But as its title suggests, the film focuses on their demanding and ambitious father, Richard

Williams.

The movie stars Will Smith as a man who'll do anything to get his daughters from Compton

to Wimbledon.
