Apple TV+ has released the trailer for Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age, from executive producers Jon Favreau and Mike Gunton, produced by BBC Studios Natural History Unit and narrated by Tom Hiddleston, with an original score by Hans Zimmer, Anže Rozman and Kara Talve from Bleeding Fingers Music.

The five-part docuseries invites viewers into a dramatic new era of prehistoric life, millions of years after the extinction of the dinosaurs — an era shaped by ice, the intense fight to survive and the rise of a new cast of giants: the iconic megafauna.

Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age uses the latest scientific research and cutting-edge visual effects to bring this frozen world to life, unveiling the spectacular habitats and inhabitants of ancient Earth. From woolly mammoths to elusive snow sloths, saber-toothed tigers to dwarf elephants (only 3 feet tall), the series 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.”

The series is produced by the world-renowned team at BBC Studios Natural History Unit with support from the photorealistic visual effects of Framestore.
