Tom Hardy has taken a break from being an apex predator on both the grappling mats and screens to narrate Sky’s very first co-production with Netflix: a five-part nature documentary series titled Predators.
While this project isn’t exactly scripted, it’s no less dramatic than the Hollywood star of Venom, Peaky Blinders, Mad Max, and The Dark Knight Rises fame’s other works.

Each episode focuses on a specific predator from one part of the world — from the cheetahs in Tanzania, polar bears in Canada, lions in Botswana, to the pumas found in Chile and wild dogs of Zimbabwe — as they’re put to the ultimate test “among the evolving landscapes and environment.”
Sky adds: “Fighting to protect their kingdoms in the wild, each predator is faced with unique obstacles and challenges in what is undoubtedly the ultimate power struggle to maintain their rule in the natural world.”
