Venus & Serena Williams Talk Tennis, family & the Movie ‘King Richard’ in Harper’s Bazaar’s Legacy Issue

Well-celebrated sisters Venus and Serena Williams feature in Harper’s Bazaar’s legacy issue dubbed “Venus and Serena Williams, On Their Own Terms.” In the interview with the magazine, the two famous tennis players talk about tennis, family, and the movie “King Richard.”

A movie ‘King Richard’ executive produced by the two ladies, tells the story of their early years through the lens of the fierce love of their father. Serena Williams highlights stating “This isn’t a movie about tennis, this is a movie about family.”

She further adds, “I think King Richard is like Iron Man and that there still are other stories around it. The next, obviously, would be the Venus story, and then there’s always the story about our other three sisters, and then there’s like a mom, and then there’s the Serena story. When I look at it, I see it just encompassing this whole superhero kind of thing.”

On family, Venus William highlights, “I think that our family is just unique to ourselves,” she says. “Obviously we’re an African American family, and it’s important for people to see African American families in that dynamic … to have role modeling.” Still, she stresses again, “our family was super unique.”

On tennis, Serena Williams highlights, “We never planned to just only play tennis, We planned to do more.”
