GRAND PRIX OF EUROPE

Grand Prix of Europe is a 2025 animated sports comedy film directed by Waldemar Fast, created to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the German theme park Europa-Park, and it stars the park’s mascots Ed Euromaus and Edda Euromausi. An international co-production between Germany and United Kingdom, the film stars the voices of Thomas Brodie-Sangster, Gemma Arterton, Hayley Atwell, and Lenny Henry.

Produced by Mack Magic and Warner Bros. Film Productions Germany, the film was released on 24 July 2025 in Germany by Warner Bros. Pictures and on 22 August in the United Kingdom by Kazoo Films.

Edda is a young female mouse with a talent for racing who works at her family amusement park on the outskirts of Paris and dreams of racing in the Grand Prix of Europe. Her particular hero is racing legend Ed, a male mouse who has won the Grand Prix four times. However, following her mother’s death, the park is struggling, and her father, a retired Grand Prix champion, has taken loans from shady characters who will possess the park if the loans are not repaid in a week. In an attempt to raise money, Edda heads to Paris for the initial race of the Grand Prix, handing out fliers advertising her family’s amusement park to the crowds. However, she finds herself backstage and happens to come across Ed’s racing car, and cannot resist the urge to drive it. Ed catches her in the act and leaps onto the car, just as it speeds through the streets of Paris. Edda crashes the car in a mound of dirt, injuring Ed’s shoulder. Since injury would mean disqualification, a frustrated Ed ultimately agrees to Edda’s plan, in which she secretly takes his place, in return for half the winnings to allow her father to pay off the park’s loans. Ed disguises Edda as a superfan who has won a contest to accompany him to the Grand Prix.

Dek is a runt Predator from the planet Yautja Prime. He seeks to prove himself as a hunter for the Yautja Clan in order to earn the approval of his father, Njhorr. With his brother Kwei’s help, Dek plans to hunt the Kalisk, an unkillable apex predator, on the lethal planet Genna. Before he can leave, Dek learns that Njhorr has ordered Kwei to kill him, deeming him too weak to survive. Kwei defies the order and is executed, but activates a transport to send Dek to Genna before his death.

Upon crash-landing on Genna, Dek faces numerous environmental dangers. He reluctantly allies with Thia, a damaged Weyland-Yutani Corporation synthetic, who offers to help him track the Kalisk.
