“Join us for a story you’ve never heard… on a scale you’ve never witnessed.” An epic new dinosaur series?! Yes! Apple has revealed two new teasers for a series called Prehistoric Planet, made by BBC Studios and the team at BBC Studios Natural History Unit. They have wrangled an epic line-up of talent for this and the first looks below are promising. Prehistoric Planet presents little-known and surprising facts of dinosaur life set against the backdrop of the environments of Cretaceous times, including coasts, deserts, freshwater, ice worlds and forests. From revealing eye-opening parenting techniques of Tyrannosaurus Rex to exploring the mysterious depths of the oceans and the deadly dangers in the sky, Prehistoric Planet brings Earth’s history to life like never before. Narrated by Sir David Attenborough and featuring an original score by multiple Academy Award-winner Hans Zimmer, and it’s executive produced by Jon Favreau on top of it all. This “enthralling exploration of ancient earth” will premiere with five episodes during a week-long event on May 23rd to 27th at the start of the summer. Everything about this sounds awesome so far – check it out below.
