Fans hope to see Beyonce be a contender for an Oscar for Best Original Song with Be Alive. The inspirational track speaks about the hustle in the lives of the stars. The film will be all about Richard, who coaches his daughters from the streets in Compton, to the international stage. Saniyaa Sidney will play the role of Venus Williams, while Demi Singleton will step into the shoes of Serena. The sister duo took on the world of tennis head-on and was guided by Richard to reach the top. Other actors taking on pivotal roles in the film include Tony Goldwyn, Andy Bean, Jon Bernthal, Kevin Dunn, and others. The film will get its theatrical release and will also stream on HBO Max on November 19.

The first trailer of King Richard released a month ago and Smith took to his Instagram account and mentioned it was 'one of the greatest honours' to celebrate Richard Williams' legacy. He wrote, "One of the greatest honours as an actor is to be able to celebrate someone’s legacy while they’re still here creating it." He called the film 'the origin story for some REAL DEAL superheroes' and mentioned it was a 'fulfilling and expansive experience beyond compare'. The script of the film is written by Zach Baylin, and Venus, Serena and Isha Price will be executive producers on the film.
