Tom Hardy announced as narrator of Sky Nature’s PREDATORS…

Sky has announced that actor Tom Hardy will narrate a new original nature series called PREDATORS.

So fans of that gorgeous voice… eat your heart out!

The nature series follows five apex predators trying to survive in drastically different and changing environments across the globe.

As climate change affects the natural world, those at the top of the food chain are now being challenged.

From polar bears in Canada, wild dogs in Zimbabwe, pumas in Chile, lions in Botswana to cheetahs in Tanzania, the documentary will see each predator overcome new challenges.

These are deadly hunters, caring parents, and cunning survivors who hold secrets and thrilling stories in their quest to survive.

Sky shares: “This series celebrates some of the most exhilarating and impressive animals on earth, whilst recognising the impact of climate change on their lives and habitats.

“To bring PREDATORS to life with one of the UK’s most gifted and reputable talents, who has a passion for environmental causes, is a great pleasure.”

And if that isn’t exciting enough, you can hear film favourite Tom Hardy narrate the whole thing!

When does PREDATORS on Sky start?

Sky hasn’t announced an exact start date for the nature documentary yet – which marks Sky’s first co-production with Netflix.

But, we do know it will launch on Sky Nature and the streaming service NOW later this year.
