EPIX to Debut New Serena Documentary

Television network EPIX will debut the EPIX Original Documentary “Serena,” a portrait of four-time Olympic Gold Medalist and International sports icon Serena Williams, Wednesday, June 22 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT, 7C.

The feature-length documentary provides viewers with access inside the world of the athlete-designer-businesswoman, including day-in-the-life interactions with her family and friends, plus her most trusted colleagues and fiercest competitors. “Serena” explores the pressures that come with being number one in the world, and her commitment and drive to succeed, ultimately emphasizing the humanity under all of her accomplishments.

For “Serena,” the documentary team was provided unparalleled access. Viewers will be witness to the external pressures and vulnerabilities Serena faces in her quest to achieve four Grand Slams in a row, and her losses at the 2015 U.S. Open and 2016 Australian Open. In addition, the film takes a look at her life off the court, as the filmmakers capture intimate and unguarded moments with her family and inner circle of coaches, trainers and friends.
