Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds has turned narrator for Underdogs, an unconventional natural history docu-series from National Geographic.

The docu-series, which premièred on JioHotstar, on Thursday, celebrated the lesser-known creatures of the animal kingdom, highlighting their bizarre mating strategies, surprising superpowers, and dubious parenting tactics, a press release said.

“Getting to work with National Geographic on Underdogs was a dream come true, mostly because I can finally watch a project of ours with my children. Technically, they saw Deadpool & Wolverine but I don’t think they absorbed much while covering their eyes and ears, and screaming for two hours,” Reynolds said in a statement.
