Dominic West, Alexander Dreymon, Ludwig Trepte, Ed Speleers, David Kross and Luke Brandon Field have been cast in Wind of Change<\/em>, about the rock band Scorpions.<\/p>\n

The biopic is being produced by ESX Entertainment for FOX Entertainment Studios in association with Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. FOX Entertainment Global holds the worldwide distribution rights excluding the U.S. and global transactional, which Warner Bros. Discovery Global Content Sales will manage.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been an unbelievable journey developing this film and bringing it to life feels surreal,” said Ali Afshar, founder and president of ESX Entertainment. \u201cNot only did the Scorpions\u2019 music help me get through tremendous difficulties as an Iranian immigrant in America in the early 80\u2019s, but their message of love, peace and rock \u2018n\u2019 roll seems more relevant today than ever. This cast is an amazing ensemble of truly great talent. I can\u2019t thank FOX Entertainment and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment enough for their support and especially the band\u2014Rudolf, Klaus and Matthias\u2014for believing in us and trusting us to tell their life story.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
