Scorpions Biopic Reveals Cast Including The Crown's Dominic West
Briefly

The upcoming biopic 'Wind of Change' about the iconic German band Scorpions features a star-studded cast, including Dominic West, Alexander Dreymon, and Ludwig Trepte. Set to be released theatrically before year-end, the film is directed by Alex Ranarivelo and produced by ESX Entertainment in collaboration with FOX Entertainment Studios and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. The narrative focuses on the band's journey and the impact of their music, especially the anthem 'Wind of Change,' which symbolizes hope and unity following the Cold War era. Filmmaker Ali Afshar expressed personal connections to the band's message during his immigrant experience in America.
"It's been an unbelievable journey developing this film and bringing it to life feels surreal. Not only did the Scorpions' music help me get through tremendous difficulties as an Iranian immigrant in America in the early 80's, but their message of love, peace and rock 'n' roll seems more relevant today than ever."
"This cast is an amazing ensemble of truly great talent. I can't thank FOX Entertainment and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment enough for their support and especially the band - Rudolf, Klaus and Matthias - for believing in us and trusting us to tell their life story."
