Future is Wild movie

The hypothetical creatures of the far future are on their way to theaters.

A few years back, Animal Planet ran a clairvoyant documentary series called “The Future is Wild”, which combined science and imagination to speculate and visualize how our planet and its denizens might look in several million years (hint: not a human to be found).

Now they’re planning to give that extrapolation a bigger budget and a bigger screen, courtesy of Warner Bros. and SHREK producer John Williams. They’ll use use live-action, animation and animatronics to bring their possible future to life.

The series featured freaky theoretical organisms like the Cryptile, Rattleback, Snowstalker, Roachcutter, Ocean Phantom, Gloomworm, Slithersucker, Megasquid and the dreaded Sharkopath.
