(July 14, 2026) Prime Video released the official trailer and key art for NOVAK DJOKOVIC: The Wolf in Winter, a feature-length documentary exploring the journey of tennis great Novak Djokovic, who began playing on the hardscrabble courts of Serbia and rose to become the most accomplished champion in the history of men’s tennis. From Connor Schell’s Words + Pictures, Sadoux Productions, and director Jason Hehir (The Last Dance), NOVAK DJOKOVIC: The Wolf in Winter will premiere August 20, exclusively on Prime Video, in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide. The documentary is the latest addition to the Prime membership.
With 24 major titles, the most in men’s history—over 1,100 career singles match wins, an Olympic gold medal, a record 428 weeks at world No. 1, and more major tournament appearances than any player in the Open Era.
NOVAK DJOKOVIC: The Wolf in Winter examines what makes this singular competitor tick—peeling back the layers of a man forged in extraordinary circumstances. Born in war-torn Serbia, Djokovic grew up amid conflict and financial hardship as his family sacrificed everything to support his tennis career. When he burst onto the professional scene, he was met not with open arms, but with resistance—perceived as an unwelcome intruder disrupting the beloved Federer-Nadal rivalry that fans had elevated to mythic status. Where his predecessors carried themselves with measured grace, Djokovic was a raw, passionate, and unfiltered player who wore every emotion on his sleeve and whose intensity sometimes put him at odds with the very crowds he performed in front of.
Through exclusive behind-the-scenes access at major tournaments, his intense training regimen, and softer moments at home with family and friends, the film offers an unprecedented and revealing look at Djokovic’s world. Featuring intimate interviews with Djokovic himself, his wife Jelena, his family, and leading figures from the world of tennis—including Rafael Nadal, Andre Agassi, Pete Sampras, Boris Becker, and Jim Courier, as well as media personalities Mary Carillo, Patrick McEnroe, Howard Bryant, Christopher Clarey, and Matthew Futterman—the documentary paints a portrait of a complicated figure whose difficult moments are inseparable from the fire that made him a champion.
