Emma Stone takes on the challenge of portraying real-life tennis champion Billie Jean King in the new movie "Battle of the Sexes." Stone told CNN, "It was the first time that I focused so, so much on the physicality of someone. The versatile actress said the role called for her to get "stronger." She said, "It was actually very cool. I did not know that I'd like it as much as I did. By the end it was like, 'Well, I'm addicted to strength. This is awesome.'" King said the actress accurately imitates her voice and mannerisms. The tennis champ said, "I'm lucky, I got the best one to play me." "Battle of the Sexes" is in theaters now.
