“The award-winning first season of ‘Prehistoric Planet’ brought dinosaurs back to life in a way global audiences had never seen before,” said Jay Hunt, creative director, Europe, Apple TV+. “Collaborating with the brilliant Jon Favreau and our fantastic partners at the BBC, we are thrilled that viewers will once again have the opportunity to be immersed in the wonders of our world as it was 66 million years ago and to experience even more weird and wonderful creatures in season two.”
Prehistoric Planet combines award-winning wildlife films, the latest paleontological insights and state-of-the-art technology to reveal the spectacular habitats and inhabitants of the ancient Earth for a uniquely immersive experience. The second season presents new dinosaurs such as Tarchia, one of the largest Ankylosauri with returning fan favorites such as the Tyrannosaurus rex and more.
