“Masters of the Air,” the third installment of the Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks-led World War II trilogy following “Band of Brothers” and “The Pacific” finally has a release date, according to Apple TV+. The first two episodes of the nine-episode limited series will premiere on Apple TV+ on Friday, January 26th. A new episode will then air every Friday through March 15th.
As we reported recently, the aviation-themed TV miniseries, Masters of the Air, has officially begun filming in Britain. Based upon Donald L. Miller's compelling book, Masters of the Air: America's Bomber Boys Who Fought the Air War Against Nazi Germany, the production will follow the true and deeply personal story of the American bomber crews who brought the war to Hitler’s doorstep in World War II. The saga is the third small-screen limited series collaboration between producers Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks, who also shepherded the highly-acclaimed WWII epics Band of Brothers (2001) and The Pacific (2010) for HBO. This series will run on Apple TV+.
