A decade ago, Planet Earth redefined natural history filmmaking, giving us the ultimate portrait of life on Earth. Ten years on, advances in both filming technology and our understanding of the natural world mean we can reveal our planet from a completely new perspective. Now, Planet Earth II allows us to experience the world from the viewpoint of animals themselves. Traveling through jungles, deserts, mountains, islands, grasslands and cities, this series explores the unique characteristics of Earth's most iconic habitats and the extraordinary ways animals survive within them. New technology has allowed individual stories to be captured in an unparalleled level of detail. For the first time viewers are immersed in incredible landscapes, allowing them to share the most dramatic moments in the lives of animals. Several weeks ago we reported that Canadian sources had provided a mid-March release date for the BBC Home Entertainment release of Planet Earth II. Now the BBC and their North American distributor, Warner Home Video, have formally announced the title. It's been given a finalized street date of March 28th. We've also been provided with package art for the title on all three formats: 4K UHD-BD, high-def Blu-ray Disc, and standard DVD format. See those below. Still no word on whether this 6-episode documentary miniseries will be accompanied by any extras, but if we find out about any then we'll update you.
