NetflixNetflix have released a new trailer for David Attenborough’s new documentary Our Planet.
Are you ready to hear that majestic voice?
The new series, set to hit the streaming service in April, features never-before-seen footage of wildlife and their habitats, while also revealing why the natural world matters to us all and what steps must be taken to preserve it – a poignant topic, as the need to save the planet becomes ever more urgent.
Check out the trailer here:
The trusted narrator introduces the show as the ‘story of our changing planet’, before we’re introduced to a range of stunning scenes, showing many of the animals which will be featured in the series’ eight episodes.
The series is the culmination of a four-year project, with filming taking place in 50 countries across all the continents of the world. According to a press release, it focuses on the diversity of habitats around the world, from the remote Arctic wilderness and mysterious deep oceans, to the vast landscapes of Africa and diverse jungles of South America.

The show comes from the creator of Planet Earth, but Attenborough won’t be the only voice over viewers can hear in Our Planet.
The series will also feature local narrators in 10 languages, including Spanish-language narrators Penélope Cruz for Spain, and Salma Hayek for Latin America.
GettySpeaking about her involvement in the project, Cruz said:
Being a part of Netflix’s Our Planet is an incredible honour. The series is spectacularly beautiful and the message of conservation could not be more timely or important.
I feel very close to everything Our Planet stands for and I’m proud to bring such a powerful piece of work to my home country and audiences around the world.
The series certainly looks incredible, and Attenborough’s never let us down before!
Our Planet will be available on Netflix from April 5.
