An Open Letter: The Time Has Come – Netflix to Release Documentary on Wolf Hoffmann and Accept
Netflix has officially announced the upcoming release of a powerful new documentary titled The Time Has Come, offering fans a rare and intimate look into the lives of Wolf Hoffmann and the legendary heavy metal band Accept. Set to premiere later this year, the film promises a deep dive into the personal and professional journey of one of metal’s most enduring forces.
Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Lars Johansson, the documentary follows Accept’s rise from a small-town German band to international metal icons. At the heart of the story is Wolf Hoffmann, the band’s founding guitarist and creative powerhouse, whose vision and passion helped shape an entire genre.
The Time Has Come features never-before-seen archival footage, behind-the-scenes access to their final world tour, and candid interviews with current and former band members, music historians, and fans. From the early days in Solingen to headlining festivals around the world, the documentary captures the highs, lows, and legacy of a band that stayed true to its roots.
Wolf Hoffmann calls the film “a reflection on decades of music, friendship, and the road less traveled.” It’s not just a farewell; it’s a celebration of a journey that changed rock history.
Fans can expect emotional moments, hard truths, and powerful performances that underscore why Accept’s story matters now more than ever.
The Time Has Come will be available globally on Netflix in fall 2025. Don’t miss this epic tribute to one of metal’s most iconic guitarists and the band that refused to compromise.
