Tom Hiddleston (Loki, The Night Manager and Only Lovers Left Alive) has a new project in sight, and it’s a nature documentary for AppleTV+: Earthsound, the new series on the platform that was filmed in 20 countries and plunges headlong into the jungle.
It not only promises to be one of the most interesting docu-series but also the one that presents the most diversity in biomes, cultures, and species. Filmed over a thousand days spanning three and a half years, the first season consists of 12 episodes.
These episodes showcase content that technology had not allowed to be captured until now, bringing together stunning images of “our planet like never before”. According to its creators, the movements of nature have never been captured in this way before.
When does Earthsounds premiere?
Earthsounds premieres on February 23, which means it is already available for streaming on the Apple TV+ platform. Tom Hiddleston is the one narrating this natural adventure in docu-series format.
The production unveils “our planet like never before – a deafening world with unexpected and unfamiliar sonic stories that we had never been able to capture – until now”.
The series documents over 3,000 hours of audio using cutting-edge technology to record our planet in new ways, and Apple invites us to be fascinated by these Earth sounds in an innovative manner.
It is the first time that the actor who brought Loki to life in Marvel takes on narrating a documentary-style production, as previously he had only used his voice for films with different narratives, such as the animated Early Man from 2018.
Many nature documentaries have been highly successful both in terms of critical acclaim and audience reception. Interest in these has grown in recent years due to the increasing environmental awareness and the desire to learn more about the diversity of life on Earth. Apple has undoubtedly capitalized on this trend.
