Will Smith’s $39 Million Masterpiece Opened Lewis Hamilton’s Eyes to Enlightening Serena & Venus Williams’ Reality

Serena Williams and Venus Williams, two of the most hardworking Tennis stars ever, have had a very difficult road to glory, and it was certainly well-depicted in the 2021 Will Smith-starrer King Richard.

Having watched the biopic, it looked pretty obvious that the Williams sisters wouldn’t have accomplished such a monumental ATP feat without their father, Richard Williams.

Unfortunately, the movie didn’t do well amongst the audience, with controversies persistently blowing up. But, in a timely manner, to their rescue arrived Lewis Hamilton.

The seven-time world champion, having journeyed along a similar path, couldn’t resist but pity the fans’ mentality. Much like the Williams duo, Hamilton has had his superstar dad, Anthony Hamilton, playing a pivotal part in his mind-boggling F1 career.

Hence, the Briton decided to shun certain fans by revealing his biggest takeaway from the movie featuring Smith and MARVEL anti-hero fame Jon Bernthal.

“I did see it. And I was really fortunate actually during the process to be speaking to Serena and Venus about it and how excited they were about the documentary,” he said.

“Of course, I know Will. So, I am really proud of what he was able to project with this film.”

Lewis Hamilton takes on the bitter King Richard comments

Hamilton, after hailing the entire crew that worked hard to bring out the promising end product, decided to comment on the fans’ lack of understanding of the Williams sisters.

“All of us have watched those two – Both of them rise and see their success and trials and tribulations. And like all of us, we very much don’t understand what it has taken to get there,” Hamilton said.

“People that tune in probably just think they are the best, not understanding the commitment and the time and the sacrifice they have to put in and so it is amazing that Will was able to highlight that.”

Yet again, Hamilton chose to defend his close friend, Williams amidst the hate. But, of course, why wouldn’t he? The fact that Hamilton has his father’s remarkable efforts etched in all of his seven titles is quite enthralling.

Also, the Hamiltons, together, had to fight a lot of demons to claim the F1 throne. Hence, do you think the Knight will create a similar biopic as King Richard, possibly as a tribute to his own father? Well, we’ll know in time.
