Fox Searchlight Pictures released earlier on today an exclusive first look preview photo of the sports biopic “Battle of the Sexes”.  As if we weren’t already excited enough to hear that Steve Carell (Foxcatcher, The Big Short) will be playing Bobby Riggs and Emma Stone (Birdman, Spiderman) as Billie Jean King, the film will document the electrifying 1973 tennis match that sparked a global conversation on gender equality.

The film will also be starring Elisabeth Shue (Chasing Mavericks), Sarah Silverman (Masters of Sex) and Alan Cumming (X-Men 2).
