We’re excited to announce our brand new series for Netflix (as yet untitled) which will “tell the story of the rise and fall of the dinosaurs – where they came from, why they mattered, how they evolved and how they met their ultimate fate.”

Created by Silverback Films, part of All3 Media Group, and in association with Amblin Documentaries, the 4-part documentary will be the next iteration” of Life on Our Planet.

Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) will return to craft the visual effects and animation, and Steven Spielberg will once again join Keith Scholey, Darryl Frank, and Justin Falvey as an Executive Producer. Morgan Freeman is set to narrate and Grammy Award-winner Lorne Balfe is back as composer. Nick Shoolingin-Jordan is directing the new series.

Our ground-breaking 8-part Emmy-contending series Life on Our Planet, which premiered last October (2023), revealed the story of life on planet Earth. It followed not only the dinosaurs, but the rise of invertebrates, mammals, plants, and other life forms across billions of years of evolution up until the present.

“It is an extraordinary privilege to bring the most iconic creatures in Earth’s history to the screen,” Dan Tapster, showrunner at Silverback Films. Speaking of the new iteration of the show, he said, “This series, covering 170 million years, will immerse viewers in the awe-inspiring world of dinosaurs, capturing the majesty and drama of their lives in unprecedented detail.”

Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey, executive producers and presidents of Amblin Television & Documentaries, added, “We couldn’t be more excited to partner again with our good friends at Silverback, Netflix and ILM as we transport audiences back in time to the age of the dinosaurs and bring these wonderful extinct creatures back to life in all their beautiful glory.
