National Geographic To Release New Ocean-Related Documentary Narrated By Sir David Attenborough

-

A new documentary film written and presented by Sir David Attenborough on the world’s oceans is set to premiere next year in theaters.

David Attenborough: Ocean” will share the story of how the Earth’s vast, interconnected waters must be restored to glory.

In the film, 98-year-old Attenborough will draw on his lifetime of knowledge and experience to take the viewer on a journey of wonder through the planet’s most spectacular undersea habitats, revealing that we are currently living in the greatest age of ocean discovery, and showing beyond doubt they are the most important places on Earth.

According to Attenborough:

“My lifetime has coincided with the great age of ocean discovery. Over the last hundred years, scientists and explorers have revealed remarkable new species, epic migrations and dazzling, complex ecosystems beyond anything I could have imagined as a young man. In this film, we share those wonderful discoveries, uncover why our ocean is in such poor health, and, perhaps most importantly, show how it can bounce back to life.”

The filmmakers will capture footage from across the Americas, Europe, Africa and Oceania, showing the practical and affordable solutions to reversing harmful human activity along coral reefs, mangroves, coastal communities, fish farms, marine sanctuaries and many other habitats to return the ocean to its most pristine and vibrant.

The film is being produced by Silverback with the backing of All3Media International, Ocean Ten Media, Minderoo Productions, National Geographic Society and Pristine Seas, Don Quixote ASBL and The Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation.

In 2025, it will debut in theaters before premiering globally on National Geographic and streaming on Disney+ and Hulu.
