If life has you wanting to bury your head under the ground and never come back to reality, the BBC is here for you.
A decade after it launched the Peabody Award-winning documentary series Planet Earth, the BBC released the trailer for the sequel. And it's truly incredible.
Watch a pat of flamingos scuttle across a wading pool, salamanders wrestle each other, monkeys swing across tree branches hundreds of feet from the jungle floor, and a sloth paddle across a lake (!), all set to a dramatic orchestra arrangement.
“Ten years after ‘Planet Earth’ first brought the wonders of the natural world to viewers in HD, ‘Planet Earth II’ is another game-changer,” executive producer Mike Gunton told Variety. “The epic scale and ambition of this series is second to none. It will be a truly immersive experience, providing audiences with a unique perspective on the most extraordinary places and animals on our planet.”
The series is narrated again by David Attenborough, and Variety reports that it will air in six parts, all of which were filmed in ultra high definition. There's no official release date for it, but you can prepare yourself by binging on the first series via Netflix.
