Gladiators
4-part series comes to Love Nature / Sky
Love Nature, a wildlife and nature brand with linear and streaming channels available in over 130 countries has greenlit a new original commission, Gladiators (4 x 60’) to be scored by Raphaelle Thibaut (Mama's Boy, Fantastic Beasts: A Natural History).
Produced by the multi-award-winning production company, Talesmith, the series depicts life-defining battles among the animal kingdom’s greatest rivalries, infused with slow motion graphic effects that intensify the drama. Like gladiatorial battles, the animal showdowns are set in different wild “arenas” including the Pacific Northwest, African Savannah, Jungle Coasts and Australia.
Gladiators will premiere globally on Love Nature in 2024. The series is a co-production with Sky and will also air on Sky Nature in the UK.
Gladiators is produced by Talesmith for Love Nature and Sky Nature. The series is executive produced by Martin Williams and Ruth Roberts at Talesmith with Alex Hemingway as showrunner.
