Jeremy Irons to Voice the Ocean in Maya de Almeida Araujo’s Feature Documentary ‘Water People’ (EXCLUSIVE)


Jeremy Irons will voice the Ocean in upcoming feature doc 'Water People: The Story of Us,' from visual artist Maya de Almeida Araujo

Jeremy Irons has landed perhaps his most unlikely role to date, voicing the ocean itself in an upcoming feature doc described as a “visionary cinematic odyssey.” The film follows six individuals — a navigator, freediver, surfer, shark whisperer, and two visionary scientists — each offering a “window into our symbiotic bond with water,” according to the filmmakers. “With its distinctive storytelling and scientific foundation, ‘Water People’ will speak with a voice entirely its own — a cross-cultural experience designed for global audiences seeking awe, meaning, and immersion,” said Hugo Grumbar of Embankment.
