If you’re searching Netflix after the Club World Cup, the streamer doesn’t currently have a dedicated Cristiano Ronaldo documentary in its U.S. library.

If you open Netflix and don’t see it, that’s not a glitch. The 2015 feature documentary Ronaldo is in Netflix’s catalog in select regions, and its availability changes with licensing. The title may appear or disappear depending on where you’re watching — including within the U.S.

When you can find it, Ronaldo (2015) is the official, feature-length portrait of Cristiano Ronaldo, directed by Anthony Wonke and executive produced by Asif Kapadia (Senna, Amy). It remains the most comprehensive authorized look at the star off the field.

Inside the film

  • Fourteen months of access — shot over more than a year at the height of his Real Madrid era.
  • Ballon d’Or years — the pressure cooker around individual awards and week-in, week-out dominance.
  • Family and roots — time with Cristiano Jr., trips home to Madeira, and quieter moments away from stadiums.
  • Inner circle — candid scenes with longtime agent Jorge Mendes and the team that manages his life.
  • Process over highlights — a focus on routine, discipline and obsession rather than match montages.

Since its release, Netflix hasn’t rolled out another stand-alone Cristiano Ronaldo documentary on this scale. He’s popped up in broader soccer series and tournament docs, but this film is still the single, deep dive into his world.

Availability on Netflix can change over time and by country. If Ronaldo isn’t showing in your app today, it may rotate back in as regional licenses shift.
