Check out the trailer from the upcoming movie “King Richard,” starring Will Smith. As Richard, the father and coach of tennis sensations Venus and Serena Williams, the movie focuses on the upbringing of the two transcendent athletes (played by Saniyya Sidney and Demi Singleton) through the lens of “an undeterred father” with a “relentless drive and unapologetic vision to change the game.” The film also stars Aunjanue Ellis (HBO’s “Lovecraft Country”) as Oracene “Brandi” Williams, Richard’s wife and mother to Serena and Venus, Tony Goldwyn (ABC’s “Scandal”) as coach Paul Cohen and Jon Bernthal (“Baby Driver”) as coach Rick Macci.
