The Grand Prix of Europe in the dream of young Edda

It's an all-European production behind the feature film Grand Prix of Europe, expected in theaters starting this summer. Info and teaser below.

Co-produced by Germany's Mack Animation and Mack Magic together with the English Timeless Films, the animated comedy is directed by Waldemar Fast (animator of Monster Family 1 and 2, Animals United), in his directorial debut, written by Kirstie Falkous, Jeffrey Hylton, John T. Reynolds, Ben-Alexander Safier and Joe Vitale, and produced by studio founder Michael Mack.

The film's story revolves around Edda, a young mouse, who dreams of racing glory. When Edda's world takes an unexpected turn, she disguises herself as her racing idol, the legendary Ed, and seizes the once-in-a-lifetime chance to drive in the Grand Prix. What starts as a daring stunt becomes the ride of her life as she takes Ed’s place in competition. The prize money would save her family’s amusement park and a win would save Ed’s title.

The main characters are the mascots of the amusement park Europa-Park in Rust (Germany), a city near the border with France, which this year celebrates its 50th anniversary.

Grand Prix of Europe is a film for the whole family that will be released in Germany from July 2025 and in North America in August.
