Emma, who won Best Actress last month for La La Land, plays the tennis legend in a film adaptation of her exhibition match against Bobby Riggs in 1973.

She sports a retro haircut and glasses while sitting with co-star Steve Carell, 54, who plays Bobby, in first-look images of her in the role.

The pair recreate a press conference that occurred before Billie, who won 39 Grand Slam titles in her career, went on to beat the Wimbledon winner in Houston. It looks set to be another box office hit for Emma.
