Today, Apple TV+ debuted the trailer for the highly anticipated new documentary series, “Omnivore,” set to premiere globally on 19 July, 2024. Created and narrated by René Redzepi, the esteemed chef and co-owner of world-renowned restaurant Noma, “Omnivore” takes viewers on an immersive journey into the world of food, exploring the profound beauty and intricate complexities of the human experience through the lens of the key ingredients that connect us all.
Each episode of “Omnivore” celebrates the cultivation, transformation and consumption of eight of the world’s most essential ingredients, including banana, chile, coffee, corn, pork, rice, salt and tuna, revealing how they serve as the cornerstones of global cultural heritage. Redzepi and Emmy Award-winning executive producer Matt Goulding (“Anthony Bourdain: Explore Parts Unknown”) guide audiences on a globe-spanning odyssey, unveiling intricate stories behind these ingredients that have shaped societies, cultures, beliefs and the course of human history.
The series takes viewers to destinations around the world, including Bali, Colombia, Denmark, Djibouti, France, India, Japan, Mexico, Peru, Rwanda, Serbia, South Korea, Spain and Thailand, as well as locations throughout the United States. In each episode, Redzepi and the series contributors offer an intimate exploration of culinary traditions, showcasing local efforts to honour, conserve and protect the Earth’s offerings.

Marsh, Sami Khan, Collin Orcutt, David Charles Rodrigues, Rintu Thomas and Mateo Willis.
