Netflix to Release Documentary on Penrith Panthers’ Las Vegas Match in 2025
Netflix has announced the release of a new sports documentary focusing on the Penrith Panthers’ historic NRL match in Las Vegas in 2025. The documentary will provide fans with an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the team’s journey as they take rugby league to the United States in a landmark event for the sport.
The Penrith Panthers, reigning NRL champions, will be one of the teams competing in the high-profile double-header at Allegiant Stadium, marking the league’s continued efforts to expand its global reach. The Netflix documentary is expected to capture the build-up, game day drama, and the team’s experience in Las Vegas, giving viewers a rare insight into the players’ preparation and the challenges of taking the sport to a new audience.
This documentary will add to Netflix’s growing portfolio of sports docuseries, which have proven hugely successful in engaging fans beyond traditional broadcasts. With the popularity of productions like *Formula 1: Drive to Survive* and *Quarterback*, the streaming giant aims to bring NRL action to a wider audience, potentially introducing American sports fans to the fast-paced, hard-hitting nature of rugby league.
Penrith’s involvement in the Las Vegas event adds another chapter to their dominant era, as they look to solidify their legacy on a global stage. Fans can expect exclusive interviews with players and coaches, behind-the-scenes footage, and a deep dive into what it takes to compete at the highest level.
The release date for the Netflix documentary is yet to be confirmed, but it is expected to premiere in late 2025 following the conclusion of the NRL season.
