The exciting and moving story of Vincent, a young humpback whale, and his friends combines adventure, self-discovery, courage, and friendship with an important message: protecting our oceans. When a monstrous creature breaks free from a melting iceberg, Vincent must face his fears. Together with his friends, he ventures into the deepest parts of the ocean to save the seas from destruction with the power of his mystical song.

The CGI-animated feature appeals to both kids and parents, combining an imaginative underwater world with a strong connection to real-world environmental issues. Its lovable characters and adventurous storyline offer a wide range of opportunities for licensing and promotional partnerships.

Following its theatrical release in Germany on February 12, 2026, the film is continuing its international rollout. In Canada, The Last Whale Singer opened in theaters on September 4, 2026, followed by Australia and New Zealand on September 24. In France, a theatrical release is planned for December 16, 2026, just ahead of Christmas.

In Germany, the film has been available on DVD and Blu-ray since September 25, 2026. A ZDF broadcast is planned for Easter 2027, providing an additional boost in visibility for the title.

In addition, a ZDF series based on Vincent and the world of The Last Whale Singer is currently in development.
