Curiosity’s big year of originals kicked off in January, showcasing an electric new talent in natural history filmmaking, as biologist and adventurer Patrick Aryee set off on a high-octane global adventure in the 6-part series Evolve.

Following Curiosity’s Emmy-nominated hit, Secrets of the Solar System, comes a brand-new 8-part series, Secrets of the Universe, premiering in March. This landmark series is the ultimate guide to the universe, told by the individuals behind the biggest missions in space exploration, including the James Webb Telescope and NASA’s Artemis mega-rocket. These are powerful tales of discovery, illustrated with stunning space imagery and unseen archives, from the race to image the first ever black hole to searching for life on Mars. And the original series Tycoons unpacks the stories of the world’s richest entrepreneurs – names like Bezos, Gates, and, yes, Kardashian – who, in some ways, yield just as much power as any elected leader.

“We’re ecstatic to be able to offer Curiosity Stream viewers an original programming slate of this magnitude and caliber — especially in the midst of a pandemic,” said Rob Burk, Head of Original Content for Curiosity. “The increasing number of tentpole original series and feature docs we’ve been investing in are really beginning to bear fruit now, and we couldn’t be prouder of the results. From exploring the greatest secrets of the cosmos, to probing the psychology of the world’s most notorious con artists, our global production partners have continued to entertain and inspire us with a dazzling display of groundbreaking factual content.”
