Serena Williams celebrated the premiere of "King Richard," the film about her and her sister Venus' journey to becoming the tennis stars they are today, alongside her family on Sunday.

Williams hit the red carpet with her husband, Alexis Ohanian, and their 4-year-old daughter, Olympia. For the occasion, the tennis champion and her little one donned matching black jumpsuits from designer David Koma.

Williams told Access Hollywood on the carpet that she first saw the look on the runway and knew she wanted to wear it to the premiere.

Ohanian also shared some snaps with Olympia ahead of the premiere.

"King Richard," which arrives in theaters and is available to stream on HBO Max on Nov. 19, focuses on the sisters' success stories and the impact their father, Richard Williams, had in molding them into the tennis greats they are.

Will Smith plays their father in the film, and both sisters have openly praised his performance.

Serena Williams told Entertainment Weekly that she hopes the film will help show her daughter what her own upbringing was like.

"She gets to see what Mommy was like," the tennis star shared in an interview for the outlet's December issue. "I always wondered how I would explain my life. Like, how will I even start that conversation? This is the perfect way."
