Look Out Hollywood - Serena’s Making a Movie!

Just hours after kicking Nadia Petrova out of the 2007 Australian Open, Serena Williams is already talking about her latest comeback to . . . Hollywood.

© Aaress Lawless - Hollywood Sign ImageSerena Williams has been a guest star on several television sitcoms, but this time she is getting her feet wet in another area of Hollywood glitz and glamour - producing a feature film.

According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Serena has optioned the script for an upcoming movie about tennis legend Althea Gibson and plans on bringing it to the big screen.

“I think Althea Gibson has a great story, and there’s a lot of talk - we’re working on a script right now,” Williams said yesterday.
