Ocean with David Attenborough OTT Release Date: When and where to watch documentary that could save the seas

Ocean with David Attenborough OTT Release Date: If you've ever stood at the edge of the ocean and felt something ancient staring back at you, something mysterious and grand, then this one¡¯s for you. More than just a documentary, Ocean with David Attenborough is a reckoning. A love letter. A warning. And yes, it¡¯s finally got a release date.

Mark your calendars for June 7, 2025, when the film premieres on National Geographic at 9 PM ET/PT. And if you¡¯re the streaming kind, don¡¯t worry, the next day, June 8, it¡¯ll be available worldwide on Disney+ (JioHotstar in India) and Hulu, right in time for World Oceans Day.

Attenborough¡¯s return to the deep

At 98 years old, most of us would be happy just sipping tea on a porch. But not Sir David Attenborough. He¡¯s once again diving into the depths, this time to mourn, to warn, and to inspire. Ocean is personal. It¡¯s poetic. And it¡¯s packed with truth.

It¡¯s the soul of our planet, bleeding silently beneath waves that stretch further than our imaginations. Attenborough¡¯s voice - calm, weathered, familiar - guides us through lush kelp forests, bioluminescent midnight zones, and chaotic, magnificent coral reefs. He shows us what remains... and what we've already lost.

A recap with a gut punch

The ocean gives us life. It controls our weather, feeds billions, and holds secrets older than land itself. And yet, we¡¯ve bulldozed its floors with bottom trawlers, choked it with plastic, and watched it boil under climate change. This film shows the ugly parts in their full, heartbreaking detail.

One scene in particular will stay with you, trawlers scraping across the seafloor like thieves in the night, stealing centuries of life in minutes. It¡¯s devastating. And it¡¯s real. But it¡¯s not just despair. There¡¯s hope here, too. Fragile reefs are bouncing back. Coastal communities are fighting to protect their waters. Young scientists are pushing the boundaries of ocean conservation. And behind it all, David¡¯s steady belief: It¡¯s not too late.

Who made this Ocean epic?

Ocean with David Attenborough comes from the powerhouse behind Planet Earth - Silverback Films. That means expect eye-melting visuals, ridiculous camera angles (how did they even shoot that jellyfish swarm?!), and sweeping orchestration that¡¯ll give you chills.

Directors Toby Nowlan, Keith Scholey, and Colin Butfield, names familiar to any nature doc buff, are back in action. They're backed by Open Planet and distributed by National Geographic in partnership with Minderoo Pictures and the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation.
