Sony BBC Earth is all set to premiere the second season of their marquee property ‘Frozen Planet’ in India.
Produced by BBC Studios’ Natural History Unit, co-produced by BBC America, the Open University, Migu Video, ZDF, and France Televisions, Frozen Planet II is narrated by Sir David Attenborough.
The six-part series returns to television screens after a long gap of 11 years.
Premiering on October 17, ‘Frozen Planet II’ will take people on an expedition to the world’s coldest areas - the high mountains, frozen desserts, snowbound forests, and ice-cold oceans, to explore the wildlife in these regions.
Filmed in the ultra-high definition using the very latest camera technology, and featuring dramatic new behaviours, intimate stories, and sensational natural spectacles captured on camera for the very first time, this six-part series is a chance to experience the wonder of our planet’s frozen realms as never before.
Having won a total of 10 awards and 9 nominations, including 4 Primetime Emmys across categories, the first series - ‘Frozen Planet’ - took viewers on an extraordinary journey across the polar regions of our planet.
With the premiere of its sequel, ‘Frozen Planet II’, the channel aims to heighten the visual delight of the viewers with another enthralling experience of the frozen worlds, this time exploring the planet on the brink of a major change.
As part of the series’ premiere, Sony BBC Earth has also launched an on-air contest where the winners will get exclusive invites to the special celebrity screening across major cities. Lucky winners will also stand a chance to win food and beverage coupons that can be redeemed at partner outlets.
Tune in and take a closer look at species such as polar bears to penguins, from snow monkeys to Siberian tigers overcoming unique sets of challenges to endure the extremities of the frozen world with Frozen Planet II.
Tushar Shah, Chief Marketing Officer and Business Head – English Cluster and Sony AATH, Sony Pictures Networks, said, “Frozen Planet II is one of the biggest properties to make its way to Sony BBC Earth this year. While the first season of the show received a great response from the viewers, now with this release, we aim to showcase an unparalleled experience of the frozen world and the life thriving in it against all odds. Being committed to offering the best to our viewers, we look forward to bringing more such exclusive and premium content on the channel.”
Mark Brownlow, Executive Producer, Frozen Planet II, said, “With Frozen Planet II, we want to captivate viewers through new stories, breath-taking drama, and stunning landscapes to drive home the message that these true wildernesses on earth are literally vanishing right before our eyes at a speed faster than we can imagine and how these changes are impacting wildlife.”
