Nat Geo May Have Its Most Beautiful Wildlife Series Yet With ‘Africa Earth’s Wild Home’ — Watch Trailer (Exclusive)

Bless the black rain frogs down in Africa.

National Geographic series Africa Earth’s Wild Home has captured the elusive amphibians — and other species — on camera for television for the first time ever. As gross as frogs are, the whole thing looks gorgeous.

The Hollywood Reporter can exclusively unveil the trailer for Africa Earth’s Wild Home (below) as well as its premiere date, Oct. 2 at 8 p.m. ET (on National Geographic Channel; it will be available to stream the next day on Disney+ and Hulu).

Wunmi Mosaku (Sinners, Loki, Lovecraft Country) executive produced and narrated Africa Earth’s Wild Home.

The seven-part event series, presented by Rolex, uses “cutting-edge CGI to unearth the deep history and forces that shaped Africa’s natural worlds,” Nat Geo says. Africa Earth’s Wild Home is the beginning of the cable network’s “ambitious multi-year franchise that will document our planet continent by continent, at a moment when that planet is changing faster than ever.” The series took four years to film across nearly 30 countries.
