Nat Geo Greenlights New Unscripted Slate Including ‘Real Finding Nemo,’ ‘Diana: One Day in Paris,’ ‘Meet the Planets’
National Geographic is expanding its unscripted slate with four new series greenlights.
Continuing his partnership with “Loki” executive producer Kevin R. Wright on this original concept, Hiddleston leads a groundbreaking historical exploration that immerses audiences in the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 A.D. and the hauntingly preserved Roman city it left behind. Through richly emotional narratives, Hiddleston unveils a remarkably modern city and brings to light the lives of ordinary Romans — not just the elite — showing how their resilience and choices still echo in our world today. From Ryan Reynolds’ Maximum Effort and the Emmy® Award-winning BBC Studios Science Unit (“The Surgeon’s Cut,” “Walking with Dinosaurs”) comes MEET THE PLANETS (working title), an astronomy series that brings the galaxy’s most famous family to life, with the sun as the matriarch, surrounded by her unruly planetary children.
