HBO's Band of Brothers Team Developing WWII Drama for Apple TV Plus
Apple has made a deal with Steven Spielberg's Amblin Television, Tom Hanks, and Gary Goetzman's Playtone to bring an event limited series based on the Donald L. Miller book Masters of the Air: America's Bomber Boys Who Fought the Air War Against Nazi Germany to Apple TV+.
As reported by Deadline, this new limited series will be a followup to their Emmy-winning World War II HBO miniseries Band of Brothers and The Pacific.
Miller's book "tells the story of the American bomber boys in WWII who brought the war to Hitler’s doorstep." This new series has become the first one greenlit with Apple serving as the studio, and Deadline reports that "the miniseries will be more than eight hours in length, and that it will cost well north of $200 million to produce."
