Red Arrow Studios International Picks Up Boris Becker Interview

Red Arrow Studios International has acquired the worldwide distribution rights, excluding German-speaking territories, to an exclusive interview with tennis star Boris Becker upon his release from prison in the U.K.

When he returns to Germany, Becker will speak with TV presenter Steven Gätjen to discuss why he went to prison, what life was like inside, what he learned and more. The interview will air on SAT.1 and Joyn on December 20.

Juliane Eßling, SAT.1’s editor-in-chief, said: “Boris Becker is perhaps the greatest hero in German sport. We all know the incredible ups and downs in his life. We are familiar with Boris Becker. But SAT.1 will not talk about him but with him. I’m delighted that Boris Becker has placed his trust in us for the first and only interview in the world after perhaps the most difficult time in his life.”

Tim Gerhartz, managing director of Red Arrow Studios International, added: “Boris Becker is a sporting legend, a six-time Grand Slam winner who is almost as well known for his antics off the court as he is for his sporting prowess. We are delighted to be able to offer our clients this compelling interview with such a controversial and complex character who has fascinated viewers around the world.”
