Prehistoric Planet is a British–American nature documentary television series about dinosaurs, that premiered on Apple TV+ beginning May 23, 2022. It is produced by the BBC Studios Natural History Unit, with Jon Favreau as showrunner, visual effects by The Moving Picture Company, and narration by natural historian Sir David Attenborough.[1] The documentary follows dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals recreated with computer-generated imagery, living around the globe in the Late Cretaceous period 66 million years ago (Maastrichtian), just before the non-avian dinosaurs' extinction. It set out to depict prehistoric life using current palaeontological research by including accurately feathered dinosaurs, and speculative animal behaviour.[2]

Hans Zimmer, Kara Talve, and Anže Rozman composed the soundtrack. It is the first major dinosaur-focused documentary series produced by the BBC since Planet Dinosaur in 2011, and the third overall.[3][4][5] Prehistoric Planet received critical acclaim for its visual effects, depiction of dinosaurs, and Attenborough's narration.

Plot

A documentary that follows dinosaurs recreated with computer-generated imagery living around the globe in the final part of the Cretaceous period, 66 million years ago. It set out to depict dinosaurs using current palaeontological research such as feathered dinosaurs like dromaeosaurs and small, feathered dinosaurs.

Production

According to palaeontologist and consultant Steve Brusatte, the series had been in development "a decade" prior to its trailer release.[6] On May 8, 2019, it was first reported by Deadline that Apple had ordered a new documentary series by BBC Studios titled Prehistoric Planet, to be executively produced by Jon Favreau.[7] An original score was composed by Kara Talve, Anže Rozman and Hans Zimmer.[8]

The series uses up-to-date palaeontological research to depict its animals of the Cretaceous with scientific rigour; for example, feathered dinosaurs are featured in the series, such as juvenile Tyrannosaurus rex.[8] Palaeozoologist Darren Naish was the lead consultant for the depictions of prehistoric life in the series.[9] The concept art and creature design was created by Jellyfish Pictures,[10] while computer-generated imagery was developed by The Moving Picture Company and intended to be photorealistic, as with their previous productions The Jungle Book (2016) and The Lion King (2019).[2]

After its release, the series consultants other than Darren Naish were revealed to be Steve Brusatte, Alexander Farnsworth, Kiersten Formoso, Michael Habib, Scott Hartman, John R. Hutchinson, Luke Muscutt, Peter Skelton, Robert Spicer, Paul Valdes and Mark Witton.[11] David Krentz, the director of Dinosaur Revolution and character designer on Disney's Dinosaur, was also revealed to have been involved in the creature development and design.[12]

In March 2023, Apple renewed the series for a second season, which began airing on 22 May 2023.[13] A spin-off, called Prehistoric Planet Immersive which features Apple Vision Pro, began airing on 2 February 2024.

Marketing

A first sneak peek was posted to the official Apple TV+ YouTube channel on April 2, 2022, along with a trailer, with a May 23 airdate set for the first episode.[14] A ten-second teaser was released on April 19, 2022, followed by an official trailer the following day.[15] A second trailer was released on May 19, 2022, in the lead up to the show's premiere.[16]

The teaser of the second season was uploaded to the official Apple TV+ YouTube channel on April 18, 2023.[17] The official trailer was released on May 2, 2023.[18]

11"Coasts"Adam ValdezPaul D. StewartMay 23, 2022 (2022-05-23)

In North America, a father Tyrannosaurus and his offspring swim across a perilous seaway to feed on a dead protostegid turtle. In North Africa, Tethydraco nestle their brood by the shores of the mainland, while baby Alcione take their first flight from a nearby island, encountering the predatory Barbaridactylus and Phosphatodraco in the process. Dozens of Tuarangisaurus travel to a bay in Zealandia to search for gastroliths, with some capitalizing on the situation as an opportunity to mate. A male Mosasaurus is cleaned by reef denizens and defends his territory from a younger, rival mosasaur. Bioluminescent scaphitid ammonites perform an elaborate mating display at night, fulfilling one of the last and most important events of their short lifespans. A pregnant Tuarangisaurus is targeted by a Kaikaifilu and protected by her pod, after which she gives birth to a healthy, baby plesiosaur.

Several male Dreadnoughtus clash for the right to mate, with an old male dying as his younger rival takes his place as the dominant contender. A pair of Velociraptor hunts for lizards among a group of sleeping Tarbosaurus surrounding a sauropod carcass. A Mononykus forages for termites in the desert, and, following a brief rainstorm, searches for prey within freshly-grown vegetation. Several animals (Barsboldia, Mononykus, Nemegtosaurus, Mongolian azhdarchids, Tarchia, Therizinosaurus, "Mongolian Titans", and Tarbosaurus) congregate around a temporary watering hole. Male Barbaridactylus compete for females atop a remote mesa, with some dominating through violent means, while others pretend to be females. In the desolate gypsum dunes of South America, a herd of Secernosaurus brave the elements and rely on their senses to reach their destination, plants growing by the seaside.

In Asia, a trio of Velociraptor hunt juvenile pterosaurs near a waterfall. In North America, an old, battle-scarred male Tyrannosaurus feeds on a Triceratops, nurses his wounds, and encounters a three-year younger female, which he attracts and mates. A Deinocheirus feeds on river plants, and scratches himself against a dead tree to relieve himself of blood-sucking flies. In southern Africa, a female Quetzalcoatlus builds and guards her nest, eventually coming to blows with an older Quetzalcoatlus that destroys some of her eggs. In Madagascar, a mother Masiakasaurus and her family hunt crabs, but one of her hatchlings is ambushed by a Beelzebufo. Somewhere in South America,[20] some elasmosaurs enter an estuary in search of fish.

As winter ends in Alaska, three Dromaeosaurus get a herd of Edmontosaurus to panic and stampede across a freezing river, causing one juvenile hadrosaur to drown, allowing the theropods to eat. Male Ornithomimus set up nests by a river for females, though one raids his neighbor's hard work to bolster his own. In an east Russian volcanic region,[21] a herd of Olorotitan raise their offspring on fertile volcanic fields but contend with biting mosquitoes. In the Arctic Circle, a troodontid flushes out Cimolodon[22][23] by spreading a forest fire. Turned away by his two siblings, a juvenile Antarctopelta scours the forest for a new winter den, briefly crossing paths with a herd of Antarctic hadrosaurids before settling within a massive cavern with glowing fungus gnats. A Pachyrhinosaurus herd stands off against a trio of Nanuqsaurus during a blizzard, with the herd eventually panicking, giving the tyrannosaurs an opportunity to bring down one of them.

In the forests of Hațeg Island, Telmatosaurus takes cover, while Hatzegopteryx preys on juvenile Zalmoxes and patrols the dense undergrowth, before flying past the seaspray-battered coastline.
