Why is Tom Hanks presenting the Americas? Maybe he wonders what Tom Hanks is by narrating a series of nature: after all, he is better known for his work on the big screen, starring some of the largest films of the last 40 years, including “Forrest Gump”, “Casting Away”, “Apollo 13”, “” Saveing the private Ryan “,” Toy Story “and many more.
It may not have the naturalistic credentials of David Attenborough, but the creators of the program believe that he has a severity similar to the legendary British presenter.
“We ask ourselves: ‘Who is the American version of David Attenborough?'” TOBY GORMAN, President of Universal Television Alternative Studio, he said recently, according to the Hollywood Reporter . “We agreed internally that there was a list of one: Tom Hanks. What we didn’t know was if he would accept to do it. [But] He resonated with him. “
Hanks himself has embraced the role, bringing his own sense of astonishment to the table, which perhaps contrasts with the best known look of Attenborough.
“A lot of this is also just that you react to this footage. There are times when I can’t believe what I am seeing,” said Hanks in a Today’s interview. “There is no moment of artificiality there. Nothing has been cgi’d … [You ask yourself]”How long does someone lean on an ocular of a camera, saying: I think the bee will land where the other bee is?”
What to expect from ‘Las Américas’ The creators of “The Americas” claim that it is “one of the most ambitious wildlife series ever produced,” shines a light on two continents that “are rarely represented on television.”
The series presents some “iconic” locations of the USA. UU. That the spectators “will instantly recognize”, but also go to some of the most remote places on Earth.
The series takes the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, the tropics, the subtropical and the Ecuador, promising images never seen before the wide range of landscapes and animal behavior in the Americas.
“I had this idea for many years that there was a place on the planet that, for some reason, nobody had really done a complete job, which is all the Americas,” said Mike Gunton, the executive producer of the program that has worked in some of the most popular BBC programs of the BBC. “This is the place of the place. There is no place in the earth that has this range,” he said, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
With five years, 180 expeditions and 87,000 miles, “Las Américas” are announced as unprecedented in terms of their ambition.
“It was expensive. There were so many risks,” Gorman said. “It is the most expensive project and without a script in the history of NBC, which I know. But we are sure that it was worth it.”
