ABOUT
“Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age” is a sweeping new installment of the award-winning natural history series from executive producers Jon Favreau and Mike Gunton, produced by BBC Studios Natural History Unit (“Planet Earth”), and narrated by Golden Globe & Olivier Award-winning Tom Hiddleston (“Earthsounds”), with an original score by Hans Zimmer, Anže Rozman, and Kara Talve from Bleeding Fingers Music.
The five-part docuseries uses the latest scientific research and cutting-edge visual effects to bring this frozen world to life like never before, unveiling the spectacular habitats and inhabitants of ancient Earth for a one-of-a-kind experience. From towering woolly mammoths to elusive snow sloths, terrifying saber-toothed tigers to resilient dwarf elephants (only 3 feet tall), this season reveals the epic struggles and unexpected stories of animals that once ruled the Ice Age. Viewers will journey through vast tundras, barren deserts, expanding grasslands, and melting permafrost as these creatures battle for survival in the face of extreme climates, shifting landscapes, and the onset of “The Big Freeze” and, ultimately, “The Big Melt.”
