Nikolaj Coster-Waldau's New Chapter After Games of Thrones: Climate Optimist! Why Daughters Are 'Very Excited'

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau speaks to PEOPLE at the premiere of his new docuseries, An Optimist's Guide to the Planet, at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City on Jan. 31.

"The series captures Coster-Waldau and his team as they criss-cross the globe exploring humanity, witnessing its power for good, and learning about some of the remarkable solutions (both old and new) that inspire his optimism for the future," reads Bloomberg's description of the project. "On their journey they visit: Greenland, Australia, United States, Japan, Vietnam, Germany, Kenya, St. Vincent, Spain, Mexico, The Netherlands and Switzerland." Coster-Waldau hopes that viewers will find inspiration in the places and people he visits in the show to counter pessimism resulting from heartbreaking headlines on the climate crisis.
