Stegosaurus won’t just play defense with those back plates — he’ll mess your whole world up with a swing of his tail. (And yes, I know that’s a T-rex in the photo. My personal favorite dinosaur was not featured in the initial key art release, shame on Netflix.)
On Thursday, the global streaming service released the trailer for its upcoming documentary series The Dinosaurs, executive produced by Steven Spielberg and narrated by Morgan Freeman. Netflix, Spielberg, the Voice of God and dinos — find me a better combination in natural history programming.
The Dinosaurs boasts “an epic journey into a lost world,” per its simple synopsis. The Amblin Documentaries production is a partnership with the Silverback Films team behind Life on Our Planet, and it follows “the rise and fall of the dinosaurs across hundreds of millions of years.”
The docuseries is a four-episode project; each episode is an hour long. Dan Tapster, Keith Scholey and Alastair Fothergill split the showrunning duties. Nick Shoolingin-Jordan directs; Scholey, Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey executive produce alongside Spielberg. The visual effects and animation are done by George Lucas’ Industrial Light & Magic. Lorne Balfe is composer.
The Dinosaurs premieres a month and a day from today, March 6, 2026 on Netflix. It’s OK, you can wait a little longer — it’s already been like 250 million years.
