Netflix has released the official trailer for Hulk Hogan Real American, confirming the documentary will premiere on April 22, 2026. The project carries added significance as it includes the final recorded interview with Terry Bollea, known worldwide as Hulk Hogan, who passed away in July 2025.

The trailer sets a reflective tone from the opening moments, with Hogan addressing how he hopes to be remembered. “In wrestling, you should be remembered from all the wars you had and everything you’ve done,” Hogan says. The footage quickly establishes that the documentary will not shy away from the complexity of his legacy.

Hulk Hogan openly acknowledges the divided opinions surrounding his career and personal life. “Some people hate me, but I think people are going to know the truth. Who was this guy, really?” he says in the trailer, signaling that the film aims to present a more complete picture beyond his in-ring accomplishments.

The documentary blends archival footage with personal moments, tracing Hogan’s journey from his early life to becoming one of the most recognizable figures in wrestling history. Several iconic matches are highlighted, including his clash with Andre the Giant at WrestleMania III and his showdown with The Rock at WrestleMania X8.

However, the trailer suggests the film will go deeper than career highlights. It hints at exploring the more controversial aspects of Hogan’s life and the pressures that came with his fame, offering a more layered portrayal of the man behind the character.

The project will also feature interviews with notable wrestling figures, including Bret Hart, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Jimmy Hart, and Linda Hogan, among others.

Hulk Hogan Real American is set to premiere globally on Netflix on April 22, offering what is expected to be a definitive look at one of wrestling’s most influential and controversial figures.
