Netflix has released the first full-length trailer for Steven Spielberg’s forthcoming nature documentary series, Life on Our Planet.

Oscar-winner Morgan Freeman narrates the eight-episode series, which chronicles “life’s epic battle to conquer and survive on Planet Earth”.

Sharing the 1.36-minute-long teaser, Netflix wrote, "In which Morgan Freeman narrates the dinosaurs. Life on Our Planet, executive produced by Steven Spielberg & the Our Planet team, premieres October 25."

“Today there are 20 million species on our planet, yet what we see is just a snapshot in time – 99 per cent of earth’s inhabitants are lost to our deep past,” reads the series synopsis.

“The story of what happened to these dynasties – their rise and their fall – is truly remarkable.”

A new trailer teases the many creatures from our homeworld's long history, including dinosaurs, woolly mammoths, and sabre-toothed predators, that will be explored in the new series.

The team at Silverback Films behind Netflix's Emmy-winning docuseries Our Planet returned to create Life on Our Planet in partnership with Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment. He joins executive producers Alastair Fothergill, Keith Scholey, Darryl Frank, and Justin Falvey while Dan Tapster produces with Fothergill and Scholey.

Life on Our Planet premieres on Netflix on October 25.
