Brendan Fraser will narrate Disneynature’s Sea Lions of the Galapagos feature film! Disney+ subscribers will get to see these adorable creatures and learn more about them on April 22. Fraser introduces viewers to Leo, a handsome sea lion pup and his mother, Luna. Director Hugh Wilson is excited for people to see Sea Lions of the Galapagos and fall in love with these animals.
“It was crucial for our story that Leo was an adventurer, and when the team encountered one particular pup, we knew we had our star,” director Hugh Wilson said. “Regularly supplied with lots of milk by his devoted mum, Luna, Leo was full of energy and keen to make his mark on the world. Full of character from day one, he was constantly up to no good—getting into sticky situations.
“Working with Brendan was an honor, and he delivered a great performance with the narration,” added Wilson. “He was able to convey a range of emotions from high-stakes drama and important factual content to intimate comedic moments. He was particularly strong in regard to the comedy—a crucial ingredient for Disneynature films—and it was great to see him really lean into those moments.”

Disney says, “Following swimming lessons, fishing expeditions and some growing up, Leo eventually leaves his mother’s colony to find his own home—male sea lions must fight to earn the best spots, and only the strongest will become beachmasters. Leo’s lifelong quest is fraught with challenges and filled with new encounters with an array of creatures, from marine iguanas and racer snakes to yellow fin tuna and huge Galapagos sharks.”
“The archipelago is Leo’s playground—overland and underwater—but he must stay vigilant to find his place in the world. Disneynature’s “Sea Lions of the Galapagos” is directed by Wilson, co-directed by Keith Scholey, and produced by Wilson, Scholey and Roy Conli, the all-new adventure features music by composer Raphaelle Thibaut.”
