As the driving force behind their success, Richard's unconventional coaching methods and unyielding support became instrumental in shaping Venus and Serena into two of the greatest athletes in the history of tennis. The film portrays Richard's unrelenting nurturing and belief in his daughters' undeniable talent, often going against the grain to protect them from external pressures and relentless media scrutiny.
With the narrative serving as an encouraging testament to the power of family, King Richard sheds light on the unbreakable bond between a father and his daughters, their rise to fame, and the challenges they had to overcome as African-American women in a predominantly white sport.
Directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green and starring Will Smith in a compelling performance as Richard Williams, King Richard offers an intimate and uplifting portrait of the Williams family's journey towards greatness, reminding audiences of the power of dreams, resilience, and unconditional love.
