We chat with OurPlanetII producer Huw Cordey about going where few nature docuseries have gone before, ending on a cliffhanger, and more. Our Planet II premieres June 14 on netflix:
Netflix’s hit nature docuseries is back in Our Planet II, which will be released on June 14. Season 1 followed what has become something of a docuseries tradition, devoting each episode to a different ecosystem across the globe. Our Planet II takes a different approach, however, and speaks to the rules of the natural world on a scale grander than most similar shows have attempted to tackle.
Huw Cordey on Our Planet II Screen Rant: I watched the first episode and had planned to do something else after, but you ended Our Planet II's premiere on a cliffhanger! I had to keep watching. I don't think I've ever seen that in a docuseries like this before, and the overall tone of the show feels uniquely dramatic. What was the thought process in coming to that choice?
You've managed to catch all of these incredible moments and stories on camera, and I imagine that, for example, for every animal escaping something deadly, you're getting a lot of footage of the opposite. Do you have a story in mind before you go to shoot, or do you kind of gather as much footage as possible and then build a narrative from there?
I appreciated that you focus so much on the impact humans are having on the natural world. Is there anything you would say to people that watch this and are emotionally affected, but not quite sure what to do with those feelings or how to help?
