Summer Doc-Busters kicks off today with the world premiere of the Curiosity original series Fateful Planet (5x50’), a jaw-dropping global investigation of the violent cosmic and geologic forces that have shaped our earth, given rise to all life, and nearly wiped it all out at least five times. The series combines active field research and stunning visualizations with cutting-edge insight from some of the world’s top experts in planetology, geology, physics, and biology. Fateful Planet is produced for Curiosity by ZDF Digital, written and directed by Sven Markmann, with ZDF’s Jörg Hartema and Curiosity's Rob Burk serving as executive producers.

"With Summer Doc-Busters, we're celebrating the cinematic magic of traditional summer blockbusters – epic adventures, captivating tales, and larger-than-life stories that keep audiences on the edge of their seats,” said Rob Burk, Curiosity’s Head of Content. “The impact of these big feature documentaries rivals that of any Hollywood blockbuster, offering viewers an unforgettable summer experience, ready to watch anytime, anywhere."
