Warner Bros. Pictures shared the official trailer for King Richard , the biographical drama that "follows the journey of Richard Williams (Will Smith), an undeterred father instrumental in raising two of the most extraordinarily gifted athletes of all time [Serena and Venus Williams], who will end up changing the sport of tennis forever":
The nearly three-minute cut is soundtracked by a new Beyoncé song called "Be Alive," which features powerful lyrics such as, "Ain't no nobody knock it if they tried / This is hustle personified / Look how we've been fighting to stay alive."
