10 Days After Rocking the Met Gala Red Carpet, 41-Year-Old Roger Federer All Set To Steal the Show With Julia Roberts As Bear Grylls Announces Exciting Initiative

The tennis legend, Roger Federer, is known to be down-to-earth and reserved. The Swiss Maestro, however, now has a chance to share his life story. Federer will feature in the “Becoming Xtraordinary” docuseries, to share his journey in tennis and also beyond it. The 41-year-old former player will be sharing the screen with several outstanding figures from other fields, including Hollywood star, Julia Roberts.

After leaving the tennis scene, the 20-time Grand Slam champion has been experimenting with some new roles. He made his debut just 10 days ago as a co-chair of Met Gala 2023, suiting up in British designer Kim Jones’ designed-classic black suit, and walking the red carpet with his wife.

Becoming Xtraordinary will be produced by Bear Grylls’ production firm and streamed on the global family entertainment platform Da Vinci. As noted by Variety, the series offers interview-driven success tales from some well-known athletes and celebrities. The show will also feature Olympic gold medalists, Nobel laureates, Julia Roberts, Courteney Cox, Channing Tatum, and the 41-year-old tennis legend, Roger Federer.

The former tennis star and Julia Roberts, who has won three Golden Globes, will be seen on the screen together for the first time. They won’t, however, be seen side by side in the series because the format is interview-based; instead, they will merely be seen talking about their real-life experiences.
