Paladin will release “The Whale,” a documentary narrated by Ryan Reynolds about a young and lonely killer whale who makes waves when he tries to befriend humans in a small town. Journalist Michael Parfit directs with producer-cinematographer Suzanne Chisholm. They spent several years chronicling the whale, “Luna,” and her adventures. Reynolds is from the same region of Western Canada where the film takes place. Reynolds also served as executive producer alongside THE WHALE will play its first commercial engagements in late summer and expand in the fall. Paladin president Mark Urman says the film “speaks volumes about our complex and ever-changing relationship with nature.  Michael and Suzanne have told this story so effectively that, while it has all the power of truth, it also has all the emotion and beauty of a perfect fable.”
