Jade Thirlwall has worked with composer Hans Zimmer on *Into The Deep (Seas Cry)*, the official song created for the launch of *Blue Planet III*. She debuted the track on BBC Radio 1’s Breakfast Show, where she told host Greg James that making it had been a “very special” experience. [1]

Thirlwall, formerly of Little Mix, said writing about the oceans had felt “magical”. She said the song was intended to be celebratory and to convey hope, and that footage filmed by the *Blue Planet III* crews played in the background while she worked on it. [1]

*Blue Planet III*, narrated by Sir David Attenborough, was due to air in autumn 2026. BBC Newsbeat reported on 6 October that an official broadcast date had not yet been announced. [1]
