Can the National Football League's appeal win the hearts of fans in Germany and around the world for the long term? With “THE GAME – The NFL Conquers Germany,” RTL explores this question in a high-quality premium documentary and tells the extraordinary success story of the world's largest sports league. Starting with the NFL Berlin Game in November 2025, the documentary highlights the rise of the NFL from its historic beginnings to the modern mega-event – with exclusive insights and voices from NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, Head of NFL International Gerrit Meier, and active and former German-speaking NFL professionals such as Bernhard Raimann, Markus Kuhn, and Björn Werner, among others.
Starting January 25, 2026, the documentary will be available exclusively on RTL+. RTL will also show an abridged version on February 8 at 7:05 p.m. as a free-TV premiere before the live broadcast of the NFL Super Bowl.
“THE GAME – The NFL Conquers Germany” is a BROADVIEW production in collaboration with RTL Germany. The producer is Emmy Award winner Leopold Hoesch (“Nowitzki: The Perfect Shot,” “KLITSCHKO,” “KROOS”).
