Disney announced a new awesome series that will premiere on the platform and will have the National Geographic badge. This time, we get to see Will Smith in exhilarating adventures that take him and the team to the most thrilling - and dangerous - places, such as volcanoes, for example. This being said, let's see when and how to watch the new series called Welcome to Earth on Disney Plus.

Where Can I Watch Welcome to Earth With Will Smith?

The new National Geographic show is called Welcome to Earth with Will Smith, and a bunch of explorers can be streamed using the Disney+ since it's a Disney+ original series. To watch it, you will need a Disney+ subscription.

Also, National Geographic Partners is a joint venture between The Walt Disney Company (which owns 73% of shares) and the non-profit scientific organization National Geographic Society (which owns 27%). So, it makes sense the series are exclusive to Disney+.

When Is Welcome to Earth Coming on Disney Plus?

The Welcome to Earth series featuring Will Smith premieres on Disney+ from December 8. As usual, the premiere will happen at 12:00 AM PT.

This is a six-part limited series produced by visionary Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Darren Aronofsky, Protozoa Pictures, Jane Root's Nutopia, and Westbrook Studios, and we'll get all the episodes dumped on the streaming platform at once.

The second trailer for this National Geographic featured content is out, and we can see the famous actor in some exciting adventures that are meant to help us discover the planet in a new and unique way. We see the team exploring glaciers, going under the sea at 3,000 feet, and descending into a volcano, and we get to gawk at unique, extraordinary things in the awe-inspiring way National Geographic used us.

What Is Welcome to Earth About?

Welcome to Earth is a Disney+ original series from National Geographic that shows us the extraordinary, once-in-a-lifetime adventure around the world that two-time Academy Award nominee Will Smith embarks on. The team aims to explore Earth's greatest wonders and reveal its most hidden secrets. It might seem humans have already mapped our planet's entire surface. However, if we look closer, we'll discover there is still so much more to uncover, and the age of exploration is far from over.

"Throughout the series, Will is guided by elite explorers on an awe-inspiring journey, getting up close and personal with some of the most thrilling spectacles on the planet — from volcanoes that roar in silence to deserts that move beyond our perception to animal swarms with minds of their own. Combining breathtaking cinematography with Will's boundless curiosity and enthusiasm, the blockbuster series is an exciting, multisensory ride through Earth's most mind-bending portals," Disney says about the special show.
