Big Beasts Cast

The animal docuseries will be narrated by Emmy-nominated actor Tom Hiddleston. In each episode, he will introduce a giant living in the wild and walk us through the pros and cons of their size. Known for his brilliant acting skills in movies, it will be exciting to witness how the actor interacts with the audience and keep them engaged with the fascinating content.

Big Beasts Plot

The documentary will showcase various beautiful and intriguing locations in the wild that we very often get to experience in real life. From deep evergreen rainforests to freezing icebergs, the series will make us virtually travel through the entire world. However, the interesting aspect of the series is that it will specifically show the giant animals that reside in the wild. People know very little about the towering animals and often hold misconceptions about them. Even though they have the upper hand over other animals that exist within the realm, there are multiple disadvantages they face that most are unaware of.

The 10 episodes are dedicated towards a particular animal. The first episode will feature Polar Bears surviving in subzero conditions. Tigers of the Indian Valley will be shown in the second. The third episode will take us to Borneo, where Orangutans live among various other apes. Ostriches are shown in the fourth episode, where they live in the African savanna. The fifth episode features Brown Bears, and Hippos are shown in the sixth. The Gorilla and Giant Otter are shown in the seventh and eighth, respectively. In the last two episodes, the creators take us to the sea world and feature the Elephant Seal and Gray Whale, respectively.

It will certainly be an educational and entertaining watch. Tom’s narration has also increased the anticipation among fans, and it is expected to live up to expectations.
