Making Masters of the Air Podcast available on Fridays.
Masters of the Air is an Apple Original series from executive producers of Band of Brothers and The Pacific, streaming January 26 on Apple TV+.
The series follows the men of the 100th Bomb Group (the “Bloody Hundredth”) as they conduct perilous bombing raids over Nazi Germany and grapple with the frigid conditions, lack of oxygen and sheer terror of combat conducted at 25,000 feet in the air. Portraying the psychological and emotional price paid by these young men as they helped destroy the horror of Hitler’s Third Reich, is at the heart of Masters of the Air.
Masters of the Air is based on the best-selling book by Donald Miller, and features a stellar cast led by Academy Award nominee Austin Butler, Callum Turner, Anthony Boyle, Nate Mann, Rafferty Law, Academy Award nominee Barry Keoghan, Josiah Cross, Branden Cook and Ncuti Gatwa.
The Making Masters of the Air Podcast by The National WWII Museum, is hosted by Playtone’s Kirk Saduski, co-producer of the series, and author of the book, Donald Miller.
Listen to the premiere episode featuring an interview with Executive Producer Tom Hanks on Friday, January 26.
Throughout the season, you'll hear from historians and more special guests from the series—including stars Callum Turner, Nate Mann, Anthony Boyle, Branden Cook, and Josiah Cross; Oscar-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood; and Executive Producer Gary Goetzman—as you get to know the American bomber crews who risked it all fighting the air war over Europe and forged a brotherhood through courage, loss, and triumph.
