Back in April, we put up some concept art that was found for Pixar’s collaboration with the Discovery Channel as Pixar break into the TV market with a TV programme called Reign of the Dinosaurs. SlashFilm were first to find those images and toady, have stumbled upon the first official image that is embedded on the Discovery Channel’s website to promote the programme.

Furthermore, SlashFilm provide information on a Discovery Channel panel at Comic-Con which takes place on Friday night at7:30pm in room 6BCF.

Head over to /Film for the full details.

Here’s the official description for Reign of Dinosaurs:

Avatar meets Jurassic Park as the latest paleontological research meets Hollywood story telling. Discovery Channel teams with the top creative talent from Disney and Pixar to create an unparalleled television event. New creatures abound in a wondrous new world – giant dinos with Freddy Krueger style clawed hands, pygmy T-rex, frogs so big they can eat dinosaurs. Learn the latest in understanding of dinosaur behaviors with exotic mating dances, the inner workings of the T-rex’s nuclear family, dinosaurs drunk on fermenting fruit, dinosaurs in apocalyptic events, the underwater birthing of mosasaurs, and prehistory’s angriest mammals. A daring and provocative new chapter in television, REIGN OF THE DINOSAURS is bound to be the benchmark for all future dinosaur natural history programming.
