Netflix has officially dropped the first trailer for its much-anticipated documentary about the groundbreaking rock trio The Warning—and fans around the globe are already buzzing with excitement. But the headline that’s making waves? The documentary is said to feature never-before-seen footage, exclusive interviews, and an intimate look into the lives of sisters Daniela, Paulina, and Alejandra Villarreal.
Directed by visionary filmmaker Sofia Alvarez, Daughters of Thunder is set to deliver more than just a typical behind-the-scenes rock doc. It promises to chronicle The Warning’s meteoric rise from viral teenage sensation to international rock powerhouses—without losing the raw authenticity and sisterly bond that made them stand out in the first place.
“The Warning isn’t just a band,” Alvarez stated in a Netflix press release. “They’re a force of nature, a symbol of passion, grit, and evolution in modern rock. This documentary is about their journey, their battles, their fire.”
The trailer captures glimpses of the sisters rehearsing in their Monterrey home studio, shredding stages across continents, and navigating the pressures of fame while staying grounded in their roots. Scenes jump from childhood YouTube clips of their iconic “Enter Sandman” cover to explosive tour moments filled with flashing lights, screaming fans, and tight harmonies that shake the soul.
Social media exploded after the announcement, with fans hailing it as a “long-overdue tribute to the queens of modern rock.” One fan tweeted, “The world is finally catching up to The Warning’s brilliance—can’t wait to cry and headbang through this.”
Netflix has been secretive about guest appearances, but insiders hint at cameos from artists who’ve collaborated with or inspired the band, plus glimpses into their recording sessions for ERROR and what’s rumored to be their next major release.
Sofia Alvarez emphasized the years of work poured into the film. “We wanted to get it right. This isn’t just a success story—it’s about identity, sacrifice, sisterhood, and what it means to be women dominating in a genre that rarely gives them the stage they deserve.”
The sisters are said to have been closely involved in the creative process, ensuring the documentary reflects not only their music, but their values and struggles. Paulina, the band’s drummer and lead firestarter, said in a recent clip, “We’ve always played like it’s the last show we’ll ever do. Now the world gets to see why.”
Daughters of Thunder drops globally this fall, with critics already eyeing it as a potential award-season breakout. Mixing emotional storytelling, musical grit, and a celebration of sisterhood in rock, the film is set to ignite a whole new wave of fandom.
Whether you’ve followed them from the start or are just tuning in, this is the story of three sisters who didn’t just play the game—they rewrote the rules.
As Daniela said best in the trailer’s final line, “We’re not here to fit in. We’re here to wake the world up.”
