Imagine if you will, a planet, like a grand and miraculous spaceship sailing through the universe of time. Something peculiar is about to happen here, a species is about to become self aware that will go on to reshape the entire planet. The time: 45,000 BC, that planet: Earth, let’s journey there now...

What about a child actor or actress? This is suppose to be a journey into the future. What better than the future generation to tell it's path? Can't think of one off hand, but maybe Tony's daughter in Endgame?

???????????? They've already taken over the fireworks.

What if it started out as a child and then as you progressed through the attraction, the voice aged to become a very noticeable voice?

I absolutely. Love that. Or what if it was different voices from around the world? They are really emphasizing "Our Shared Story" being the theme.

2. Tilda Swinton
3. Anthony Hopkins
4. Jim Cummings: One scene as Pooh another as darkwing, then tigger and so on “Oh bother they burnt Rome...”

After watching the Tomorrowland movie I feel like Hugh Laurie could be a good choice.

I do not like this idea. That would make it seem (regardless of intent) that humans as a whole were children in the ancient/classical era and have grown into adults.

Or you could be experiencing these scenes as you learned about them in school.

I don’t think that an English dialect was around during the earliest days of man because Judi Dench narrates during it.

I'm just saying that's how it would sound to me. I don't like the idea of children narrating -- Spaceship Earth is possibly the least appropriate place at Disney for that. I also don't think most people (at least in the US) learn about history chronologically; I know we didn't talk about anything older than the colonial era until high school.

I've always hated that we didn't learn things in the order that they happened...it would have made them so much easier to understand and I really think it's why I hated history as a kid. Now that I'm an adult and have been able to read things in the correct order, I've found a love for history I never thought I would have.

But your first knowledge of dinosaurs, prehistory, and cavemen was when you were a child.
I'm not saying this is the best way either...I, personally, would like an option using those touchscreens to choose between various narrators with slightly different scripts.

Kidding. In my opinion, Spaceship Earth has always been home to narrators with great voices, so here's hoping they find the next generation's great voice!

 

[Texas84]

Chris Pratt as Barley

 

[Robbiem]

Another underrated narrator would be Brad Pitt. He actually has a very southing voice when you hear him narrate a documentary

 

[Goofyernmost]

How about Tim Allen. He sure does a great job with those Pure Michigan ads.
