Blue Planet<\/i> is back, baby! So strap into your Bathysphere, take a deep breath, and dive down into the world’s most extraordinary biome.<\/p>\n

Sixteen years after the series’ debut, BBC has again tapped Sir David Attenborough to narrate Blue Planet II.<\/i> The latest season took several years to complete, and uses<\/a> “new technology” to capture better, closer shots of marine wildlife.<\/p>\n

The trailer, which dropped today, looks amazing. It’s not clear if Blue Planet II<\/i> focuses on any theme in particular. But the series will probably touch on issues like climate change, overfishing, and other human behaviors that imperil our oceans.<\/p>\n

A study<\/a> published in the journal Science<\/i> last year found that humans are the dominant threat to marine species\u2014causing catastrophic losses that impact the largest to smallest creatures. We’re seeing species on the edge<\/a> of extinction, and ecosystems dying off<\/a> on a colossal scale. Shows like Blue Planet II<\/i> aren’t a panacea for these crises, but they encourage people to give a shit. <\/p>\n

BBC says this season will feature<\/a> “never-before-filmed species,” like the hairy-chested Hoff crab (named after David Hasselhoff). The trailer shows charismatic favorites, too, like the mammoth whale shark and brilliant cuttlefish.<\/p>\n

Composer Hans Zimmer and Radiohead collaborated on the music for the trailer. It’s set to a version of “Bloom” Radiohead’s The King of Limbs<\/i>. The band’s lead singer, Thom Yorke, says<\/a> Blue Planet<\/i> inspired the original “Bloom.” Yorke has previously called himself<\/a> a “climate optimist.”<\/p>\n

Blue Planet II<\/i> doesn’t have a premiere date in the US, but will air sometime in early 2018. <\/p>\n
