Throw on Obscene Wifeyour comfy fleece, grab a handful of trail mix, and get ready to hit play -- the streaming service of your nature doc dreams is on the way.
In a joint statement released Monday, Discovery and BBC Studios announced a "significant multi-million pound global content partnership" that will deliver (among other things) a new, shared streaming service.
Both leaders in the documentary genre -- with marked specialties in history, science, and adorable baby animal footage -- Discovery and BBC will combine portions of their massive existing libraries to form the (currently unnamed) platform. The resultant collection will feature past hits like Blue Planet, Planet Earth, and Life, as well as original content created exclusively for the service.

BBC has already announced plans for Frozen Planet IIand Planet Earth III, due out in 2021 and 2022 respectively -- and Discovery President and CEO David Zaslav even went as far as to liken the service's newfound partnership to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
"The [intellectual property] is a big piece of the core strategy; these landmarks and that library is our Marvel IP catalogue," Zaslav said in an interview with Deadline.
"That’s the business we’re in. Those are the stories that are loved in every country in the world… Planet Earth, Life, Blue Planet, Frozen Planet… these are just the titles that exist that we will be doing spinoffs, sequels, characters and stories from that IP catalogue.”

No official launch date for the service has been announced, but eager fans can mark their calendars for sometime in 2020. Pricing is similarly not yet available.
