On August 15, 2025, the sold-out Magic Cinema 4D at Europa-Park hosted the screening of the long-awaited comedy film DAS KANU DES MANITU, with Michael Bully Herbig, Christian Tramitz, and Rick Kavanian in attendance. Guests were thrilled by the new adventures of the characters Abahachi and Ranger. The film builds on the success of DER SCHUH DES MANITU and fits thematically with the new Silver Lake City in the park.
Return of a Classic
Michael Bully Herbig has dusted off the director's chair 24 years after the cinema hit DER SCHUH DES MANITU, which made film history and became the most successful German film of all time. The comedy DAS KANU DES MANITU tells of the fresh adventures of the well-known figures Abahachi and Ranger. Visitors to the screening at Europa-Park reacted with enthusiasm to the humorous scenes.
Thematic Connection to Silver Lake City
The thematic link to the new Silver Lake City at Europa-Park made the visit by stars Michael Bully Herbig, Christian Tramitz, and Rick Kavanian especially fitting, as the film matches perfectly there. The main cast stopped by the Western attraction and was fascinated by the authentic Western vibe that the setting provides.
Production and Release
DAS KANU DES MANITU was produced by herbX film in co-production with Constantin Film and with support from RTL, FFF, FFA, and DFFF. The cinema release took place on August 14, 2025, distributed by Constantin Film.
Another Film Highlight in Theaters
In addition, the spectacular animated adventure film GRAND PRIX OF EUROPE is currently playing in theaters to mark the 50th anniversary of Europa-Park. Since July 24, the popular mascots Ed and Edda have been conquering the big screen in this adventure. MACK Magic tells the exciting story of a race across Europe in co-production with Warner Bros. Film Productions Germany and captivates with humor, action, and many beloved characters from Europa-Park.
