Ryan Reynolds Celebrates Nature's Unsung Heroes in "Underdogs"
- Ryan Reynolds, a 48-year-old Canadian actor and co-owner of Wrexham AFC, will narrate the five-part series Underdogs starting June 18 on National Geographic Wild UK.
- Underdogs focuses on lesser-known animal behaviors and outcasts of the natural world to shift attention from typical wildlife stars, as Reynolds highlights in his narration.
- The series includes rare footage such as a glowing New Zealand cave, cliff-nesting geese, and a koala feeding its baby feces, with music by composer Henry Gregson-Williams and a theme song by Green Day.
- Reynolds called working on Underdogs a dream come true because he can share it with his children, in contrast to their reaction of covering eyes and ears during Deadpool & Wolverine.
- National Geographic, with 135 years of history, and Reynolds’ team aim to elevate nature’s underappreciated creatures, encouraging viewers to appreciate these ‘unsung heroes’ beyond the usual wildlife subjects.
