StoryThe electrifying 1973 tennis match between World number one Billie Jean King (Emma Stone) and ex-champ and serial hustler Bobby Riggs (Steve Carell) was billed as The Battle of the Sexes and became one of the most watched televised sports events of all time. The match caught the zeitgeist and sparked a global conversation on gender equality, spurring on the feminist movement. Trapped in the media glare, King and Riggs were on opposite sides of a binary argument, but off-court each was fighting more personal and complex battles. With a supportive husband urging her to fight the Establishment for equal pay, the fiercely private King was also struggling to come to terms with her own sexuality, while Riggs gambled his legacy and reputation in a bid to relive the glories of his past. Together, Billie and Bobby served up a cultural spectacle that resonated far beyond the tennis courts and animated the discussions between men and women in bedrooms and boardrooms around the world.

Now, as Bobby grows aggressively impatient, they all are forced to remain within the cryptic location for the duration of the night. But nothing ever seems to go as planned, and as the night continues to unfold they each begin to believe the mansion holds many more secrets within its mysterious chambers. Every shadow seems to whisper. Every corner appears to shift, and before long, they each begin to hold the other responsible for the situation they have found themselves in. A situation that may have been destined to unfold long before the events transpired. A situation fuelled by Bobby’s rage, blurred by Jewels drug addiction and scattered by McQuade’s confusion.
