Former President Barack Obama is the surprise narrator of the upcoming Netflix documentary Our Great National Parks<\/em>, a five-part series looking at wildlife around the world. The series was announced last February<\/a> as part of a slate of programming that Barack and Michelle Obama are producing for Netflix via their Higher Ground Productions company \u2014 although the announcement didn\u2019t mention that the former president would serve as host and narrator.<\/p>\n

\u201cA fish that can walk. Surfing hippos that want to catch the waves. Species found nowhere else on earth,\u201d Obama says in the trailer for Our Great National Parks<\/em>. \u201cWhen humanity started to protect these wild places, we did not realize how important they would become: They\u2019re a haven for endangered species, and a hotbed for scientific research.\u201d<\/p>\n

Deadline<\/em> reports<\/a> that the show includes footage from parks in Monterey Bay, California, Tsavo National Park in Kenya, and Gunung Leuser National Park in the rainforests of Indonesia. <\/p>\n

The Obamas signed a multi-year agreement with Netflix in 2018<\/a>, with a stated goal of creating \u201ca diverse mix of content, including the potential for scripted series, unscripted series, docuseries, documentaries, and features\u201d from Higher Ground Productions. In addition to the national parks series, the company has brought to Netflix the children\u2019s shows Ada Twist, Scientist<\/em>, and Waffles + Mochi<\/em>; the Oscar-winning documentary American Factory<\/em><\/a>; the Peabody Award-winning film Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution<\/em><\/a>, and <\/em>Becoming<\/em><\/a>, <\/em>based on Michelle Obama\u2019s memoir. <\/p>\n

Our Great National Parks<\/em> debuts on Netflix April 13th.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
