Produced by the BBC Natural History Unit and made with the support of Framestore, the documentary series is narrated by Tom Hiddleston, with music by Hans Zimmer, Anže Rozman, and Kara Talve. Comprising five episodes, it will be available in France on Apple TV+ on November 26, 2025.
The season explores a period several million years after the extinction of the dinosaurs, marked by extreme climatic conditions. It describes the adaptation of megafauna faced with an unstable environment, between glaciations, mass migrations, and habitat transformation.
Each episode features species that evolved to survive the cold, from woolly mammoths to specialized predators. The approach combines recent scientific data and photorealistic visual effects to reconstruct territories shaped by freeze and thaw.
The series is produced by Jon Favreau and Mike Gunton, who were also responsible for the first seasons of Prehistoric Planet. It benefits from the contribution of BBC Studios Natural History Unit, renowned for its international documentary productions. The visual effects are provided by Framestore, a company specializing in digital image creation. The project is part of a franchise focused on recreating extinct ecosystems using the latest scientific tools.
The tone is naturalistic and immersive, with a pace based on the observation of animal behavior. Aimed at viewers interested in the history of Earth and scientific reconstructions, the series targets families and fans of wildlife documentaries.
