Making a comeback to competitive action at the 2022 Wimbledon Championships, Serena Williams suffered an opening-round defeat. However, despite the disappointment, Williams has made sure that the loss doesn’t overshadow her off-court activities.

Yesterday, Williams and Ohanian headed to the UK premiere of Thor: Love and Thunder. Being die-hard Marvel fans, the two seemed to be significantly exhilarated for the premiere. Additionally, things became even more special for the two with the presence of American actress, Natalie Portman, also the co-founder of the National Women’s Soccer team, Angel City FC.
