tells two very striking and profound stories: the one in front of the camera, which follows six powerful sisterhoods within the animal kingdom, and the one happening behind the scenes, with the first-ever women-led production team for a natural history series.You can't tell one without the other, and it's evident in the chill-inducing trailer, which Glamour is exclusively premiering ahead of the series' debut on Monday, March 4.
Narrated by Oscar winner and Angela Bassett, Queens examines the impact of the matriarchy from the smallest ant to the largest land and sea mammals.The seven-episode series was filmed over four years in 12 countries and is, without question, one of National Geographic's most ambitious and crucial projects, both for the future of wildlife and the women telling their stories. (Historically, women have been underrepresented in nearly every aspect of the natural history storytelling space.)Cinematographer Tania Escobar films bonobos from a tree platform.
According to , “Bonobos and chimpanzees look very similar and both share 98.7% of their DNA with humans—making the two species our closest living relatives.”“Queens flips the traditionally male-dominated natural history genre on its head,” Queens executive producer Vanessa Berlowitz tells Glamour. “It charts the little-explored intricacies of the animal queendom—from the raw and heartwarming—to most heart-stopping moments.
Through the use of cutting-edge technology, we closely documented these staggering yet inspiring journeys.”Speaking of those heartwarming and heart-stopping moments, take a look at the official trailer, which features Billie Eilish's hit song “You Should See Me in a Crown.”Epic, right?
