Celebrate the life of the world’s most beloved broadcaster in Attenborough’s Life Journey premiering Wednesday, November 20, 2024. This intimate portrait follows Attenborough’s years on the road, from the islands of the Galapagos to the mountains of Canada to the jungles of Borneo. Combining exclusive behind-the-scenes footage, candid interviews from David on location, and stunning footage from his pioneering documentaries, this film chronicles an Attenborough never seen before.
Witness Sir David’s love of fossils as a young boy in Leicester transform into a passion for the natural world in his field of study at Cambridge. From his early days as a presenter on BBC’s Zoo Quest, Attenborough rose through the ranks to become the foremost natural history presenter in the world, a beloved figure known for his cheeky remarks and remarkably timed footage. An avid advocate for climate change, Attenborough never settled down and continues to work on groundbreaking productions.
“For over 40 years, Sir David Attenborough took us by the hand and walked us through the natural world with an ease and grace that we will probably never see again,” said Fred Kaufman, Executive Producer for Nature. “There will never be another Attenborough, and Nature is fortunate to have worked with him on so many iconic films and series.”
