"Second serve now, after killing a man." You won't soon hear that spoken during live tennis TV commentary, but a mockumentary has no need for hitting inside the lines.
HBO will have its way with Wimbledon on the tournament's finals weekend when 7 Days in Hell airs for the first time. Andy Samberg and Kit Harington star as Aaron Williams and Charles Poole, respectively. The former was raised on the streets. The latter is Great Britain's latest hope for a homegrown champ.
Pay attention the Samberg character's surname. Turns out he's the some-kind-of-adopted brother to Venus and Serena Williams, a lad brought under the wing of their father, Richard. "It was a reverse Blind Side," Serena explains in the film's new trailer. "You know, a rich white family gets a black kid and makes him play football. Well, we flipped it. You see, my dad, he took a white kid and made him play tennis."
