Apple TV+ also shared the first-look image and teaser for season two of the award-winning natural history seriesPrehistoric Planet, from executive producers Jon Favreau and Mike Gunton and BBC Studios Natural History Unit.

Narrated by Sir David Attenborough, and with an original score by Hans Zimmer, Anže Rozman and Kara Talve for Bleeding Fingers Music, it will debut in a five-day, week-long event from May 22.

The teaser traverses the globe as it would have been millions of years ago, using the latest scientific research and stunning visual effects to reveal never-before-seen species on-screen, including:

• Isisaurus – An Indian sauropod (long-necked, plant-eating dinosaur) that made its home in an extreme volcanic region known as the Deccan Traps, laying eggs in volcanic heated terrain.
• Pectinodon – a fierce hunter and fond parent, this bird-like North American feathered dinosaur was part of the troodontid family. A sharp-clawed, long-legged predator, it was an adaptable hunter, its teeth and jaws suggesting that many sorts of small animals would have been on the menu.
• Quetzalcoatlus and Hatzegopteryx – The biggest creatures ever to soar the skies, these gargantuan pterosaurs (prehistoric flying reptiles) were the size of a giraffe or small aircraft and are some of “Prehistoric Planet’s” most charismatic characters.
