Tom Hanks Narrates Ambitious Nature Docuseries 'The Americas'

The 10-part NBC and BBC collaboration explores the diverse wildlife and ecosystems of North and South America, premiering February 23, 2025.

The series, narrated by Tom Hanks and scored by Hans Zimmer, spans 10 episodes highlighting unique habitats and creatures across the Americas.
Filmed over five years with 180 expeditions, the project covers regions like the Amazon, Andes, Gulf Coast, and Patagonia.
The use of advanced drone technology allowed unprecedented close-up footage of wildlife, including rare moments like a blue whale breaching.
NBC describes it as its most expensive unscripted project ever, aiming to rival the scale of landmark series like 'Planet Earth'.
Episodes will air weekly on NBC and sister networks, with next-day streaming available on Peacock and international broadcasts starting March 2, 2025.
