Oscar-winning actor Emma Stone, who will be seen next in Battle of the Sexes, feels that the movie is politically relevant right now. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, she said: "It's interesting because this was shot in 2015, so Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton were in the public consciousness, and we had no idea which way this was going to go.

So while shooting it, it was kind of this interesting to look at Bobby Riggs and Billie Jean King and the very political nature of what the battle actually was about. The battle, as much as it was this spectacle, it was also about equal treatment and equal rights."

The La La Land star revealed that she feels nice to be part of a story that's talking about this woman who did so much for feminism. She explained, "It's nice to be part of a story that's talking about this woman who did so much for feminism and the LGBTQ community and continues to. And just to shed light on how long she's been walking this path and walking her talk. That's the special thing."
