National Geographic's Tucci in Great Britain is coming soon to Disney+

Spanning five episodes—matching the concise length of each Tucci in Italy season—the upcoming series follows the host on an immersive culinary journey through his adopted homeland of Great Britain. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Stanley Tucci will travel from the rugged Scottish Highlands to the storied coastlines of the U.K., unlocking the distinct and often surprising regional flavors that define British cuisine. Audiences will be able to watch the new docuseries exclusively on Disney+, Hulu, and National Geographic, which also serve as the streaming homes for his previous Italian food adventures.

Though American by birth and of proud Italian descent, Tucci has long called London home, where he resides with his wife, Felicity Blunt (sister of actress Emily Blunt), and their two children. Expressing his enthusiasm for the new project, Tucci shared, “I am very excited to explore the history, culture and people of Great Britain through the prism of food. Having made it my home for almost 15 years, I want to share the culinary diversity, richness and depth of its food culture.”

National Geographic executives are equally thrilled about the host’s next chapter. Tom McDonald, executive vice president of National Geographic content, praised the host’s unique screen presence, stating, “Stanley Tucci is one of a kind — smart, funny, authentic, passionate about food and culture and deeply interested in the stories of the people who make the very best food. That’s why I’m so excited that his next journey will be around Great Britain — the place he has called home for over a decade. The stories that Stanley and his team have unearthed will be sure to delight and surprise — a reminder of just how varied and delicious food in the U.K. truly is.”

Behind the scenes, Tucci in Great Britain is being brought to life by production companies Salt Productions and OBB. The executive producing lineup features an impressive collaborative team:

  • For Salt Productions: Stanley Tucci and Lottie Birmingham serve as executive producers, with Ben Jessop on board as co-executive producer.
  • For OBB Pictures: Michael D. Ratner, Scott Ratner, and Elias Tanner serve as executive producers.
  • For National Geographic: Yari Lorenzo steps in as executive producer, supported by Bengt Anderson (senior vice president of production) and Charlie Parsons (senior vice president of global development).

Tucci in Italy set the bar for how food storytelling can drive culture — and that’s exactly the kind of work OBB loves to create,” said Elias Tanner, OBB senior vice president of strategy and growth. “We’re thrilled to be partnering with Stanley, Lottie, Tom, Nat Geo, and the whole team on this next chapter — exploring the often misunderstood yet truly rich food culture of Great Britain, and how it has been uniquely shaped by its history and people.”
