The 2021 movie ‘King Rihard’ received plenty of accolades this year, as fans and critics gave rave reviews. Although the film mainly told the story of Richard Williams (father of Venus and Serena Williams), it was also equally an origin story for Venus Williams.

In the movie, both Williams sisters were executive producers, along with their half sister, Isha Price. It seems like Venus is following the same path after King Richard’s success as she becomes the producer of a new project.
