Novak Djokovic Loves His Haters
The film examines his 24 Grand Slam titles and the Australia deportation while exploring how criticism fuels his drive.
- Prime Video released the documentary The Wolf in Winter today, directed by Jason Hehir, exploring Novak Djokovic's 24 Grand Slam titles and the career crossroads he currently faces.
- Djokovic's early life in war-torn Serbia features prominently in the film, including his childhood flight from an aerial attack in Belgrade and his difficult separation from his parents for training in Germany at age 12.
- The Wolf in Winter addresses polarizing moments, including Djokovic's 2022 deportation from Australia during the COVID-19 pandemic, while filmmakers emphasize the documentary does not aim to make viewers love the athlete.
- With 428 weeks at world no. 1, the 39-year-old Djokovic now faces daily decisions about his career and family, questioning whether he will continue competing despite having conquered every mountain.
- Director Hehir explores whether Djokovic might play into his 50s; when asked about his life at 65, Djokovic retorted, "What makes you so sure at 65 I", rejecting the concept of retirement.
