King Richard - Will Smith, Jon Bernthal, Saniya Sidney - 111

This week on The Cover, the boys break down King Richard, the inspiring sports drama that tells the story of Richard Williams and his relentless belief that his daughters, Venus and Serena, were destined for greatness. Was Richard a visionary, an overbearing father, or somehow both? We unpack Will Smith's Oscar-winning performance, the film's portrayal of ambition, sacrifice, and family, and the unforgettable moments that turned two young girls from Compton into tennis legends. Along the way, we discuss the movie's biggest emotional beats, the real-life story behind the film, and whether King Richard succeeds as both a sports movie and a family drama. Join us as we explore one of the most talked-about biopics of the decade.
