Netflix is set to serve up another ace in the sports documentary game with its latest project, “THE TWO GERMAN MACHINES”, a powerful look at two of Germany’s greatest tennis legends. The film, set to premiere later this year, delves into the careers and legacies of Boris Becker and Steffi Graf — two dominant forces who brought Wimbledon glory to Germany and forever changed the face of tennis.
This dual biography will not only explore their unmatched athleticism and mental toughness — qualities that earned them the nickname “machines” — but also the personal challenges they faced away from the court. Combining archival footage, behind-the-scenes insights, and fresh interviews with contemporaries, coaches, and family members, the documentary aims to paint a complete picture of both icons’ rise to greatness.
Becker, with his raw power and youthful confidence, stunned the tennis world when he became the youngest men’s Wimbledon champion in 1985. Graf, with her graceful domination and unmatched forehand, completed the Golden Slam in 1988 — winning all four majors and Olympic gold in a single season.
“THE TWO GERMAN MACHINES” promises to be a compelling narrative of rivalry, resilience, and national pride. With Netflix’s proven track record in sports storytelling, fans can expect an emotional and inspiring journey through two of the sport’s most iconic careers. The countdown to its release has already begun.
