Thirty-three years ago, Steven Spielberg made you believe dinosaurs could walk the earth again. This time, he’s not putting them in a theme park — he’s taking you back 235 million years to see exactly how they conquered the planet in the first place.

*The Dinosaurs* is a four-episode documentary series from executive producer Steven Spielberg and Amblin Entertainment, made in collaboration with the creators of *Our Planet*, charting the complete story of the rise and fall of dinosaurs — where they came from, why they mattered, how they evolved, and how they ultimately met their fate. [IMDb](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14181714/) It premieres globally on **March 6, 2026**, exclusively on Netflix.

## What Makes This Worth Your Time?

This isn’t just another nature documentary. Think of it as the spiritual, science-first successor to *Jurassic Park* — without the chaos and with all the awe.

The series blends scientific research with dramatic storytelling and advanced visual effects. While *Life on Our Planet* explored Earth’s evolutionary history as a whole, this new series focuses entirely on the age of [dinosaurs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinosaur) — covering roughly 170 million years of their dynasty.

Viewers can expect proto-dinosaurs like *Marasuchus*, long-necked giants like *Mamenchisaurus*, armoured titans like *Stegosaurus* and *Ankylosaurus*, fearsome predators like *Allosaurus* and *T. rex*, plus ocean giants like *Pliosaurus* and early feathered fliers like *Anchiornis*.

What truly sets this apart is the ILM connection. George Lucas’ Industrial Light & Magic handled the visual effects — the same studio that revolutionised CGI dinosaurs in the original *Jurassic Park*. The result? Photorealistic creatures informed by the latest paleontological findings, including feathered skin and complex social behaviour science now confirms they had.

Morgan Freeman narrates — his second collaboration with Spielberg, having previously lent his voice to *Life on Our Planet* in 2023.
