The Lost World (2001) is a TV mini-series about an expedition to the Amazon rainforest to find a plateau where dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures still exist.

In 1911, Professor George Challenger (Bob Hoskins) shoots an animal he believes to be a pterosaur in the Amazon. He returns to London and crashes a lecture by his rival, Professor Leo Summerlee (James Fox), to propose an expedition to find the pterosaur's home. Challenger's proposal is dismissed by the science community, but hunter Lord John Roxton (Tom Ward) and journalist Edward Malone (Matthew Rhys) volunteer to join the expedition and finance it.
