In addition, the film explores his new role as an ambitious entrepreneur in the booming cannabis industry.
For this in-depth exclusive production, SI joined Williams for a series of shoots on location at the 2016 Spannabis World Cannabis Conference in Barcelona, Spain, at the Williams family home in Austin, Texas and on a tour of an indoor cannabis grow operation in Arizona. The SI Films production will run with a feature story by SI senior writer Greg Bishop in an immersive digital long form.
