News that their story might be the subject of a film is cause for excitement. But the news that that movie is going to focus on their father, rather than on them, is not.

Variety reports that King Richard, a biopic of Serena and Venus’ father Richard Williams is in the works with Will Smith set to star. The film will tell Richard’s story as a man from a poor family in Compton with no tennis background whatsoever who saw a game being played on the television and decided that his daughters Venus and Serena would become tennis champions. From the ages of four and three, Richard took his daughters to public tennis courts in Los Angeles, coaching them in the game himself. The rest, as they say, is history.

It’s a truly inspiring story of triumph and predestined greatness, and there’s no doubt that Richard played an integral role in his daughters’ many successes. But wouldn’t you rather see a movie about Venus and Serena Williams told from their perspective, and not their father’s?

Serena Williams is finally getting her own movie – but there’s an upsetting twist
