Legendary director Steven Spielberg changed cinema forever with Jurassic Park, and now he is executive producing an ambitious new Netflix documentary series titled The Dinosaurs. Produced by Amblin Documentaries and the creators of Life on Our Planet, this four-part saga will use cutting-edge visual effects to transport viewers back millions of years. What should viewers watch for a refreshment, before the Netflix series is out?

The streaming giant currently hosts a diverse library of prehistoric adventures for all ages.

First, there is Jurassic World: Chaos Theory, which serves as a risky animated sequel following the Nublar Six as they navigate a global conspiracy involving free-roaming dinosaurs. Second is Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous, which chronicles the original struggle of six teenagers stranded on Isla Nublar after the theme park’s containment fails.

The third watch has to be Bad Dinosaurs, which features a family of clumsy Tyrannosaurus rexes navigating a prehistoric world filled with quirky creatures and comedic mishaps. The fourth is Dinotrux, which combines prehistoric beasts with construction vehicles to tell the story of Ty Rux and his friend Revvit as they build a better world.

The fifth movie, Gigantosaurus, follows four young dinosaur friends as they explore their world and uncover the mysteries of the largest, fiercest predator they know. Sixth is Cupcake & Dino: General Services, which stars a cupcake and his dinosaur brother who take on odd jobs in an eccentric, vibrant city. At last, Dino Girl Gauko focuses on a young girl who transforms into a fire-breathing dinosaur whenever she gets angry or upset.

A new era of prehistoric storytelling begins next month with a cinematic documentary event.

The Dinosaurs is scheduled to premiere on March 6, 2026, featuring the iconic narration of Academy-Award winner Morgan Freeman. The series consists of four hour-long episodes that combine scientific research with the legendary visual effects of Industrial Light & Magic.

This collaboration aims to provide a hyper-realistic portrayal of iconic species, such as the Tyrannosaurus rex and Triceratops. The executive producers, including Alastair Fothergill and Keith Scholey, have designed the series to be the next iteration of their award-winning natural history work.

Each episode will dive into specific eras, highlighting how different species adapted to a rapidly changing planet. Fans of both documentary filmmaking and Spielberg's classic blockbusters can expect a visceral, emotional journey through deep time.

Spielberg remains the definitive voice in dinosaur media, and this series looks to be his most grounded exploration yet. By moving away from fiction and toward the real history of these animals, the project honors the legacy of his prehistoric roots.
