Based on Donald L. Miller’s book of the same name, and scripted by John Orloff, Masters of the Air 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.” Some were shot down and captured; some were wounded or killed. And some were lucky enough to make it home. Regardless of individual fate, a toll was exacted on them all.

The series features a stellar cast led by Academy Award nominee Austin Butler, Callum Turner, Anthony Boyle and Nate Mann, who are joined by Raff Law, Academy Award nominee Barry Keoghan, Josiah Cross, Branden Cook and Ncuti Gatwa.

Hailing from Apple Studios, Masters of the Air is executive produced by Steven Spielberg through Amblin Television, and Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman for Playtone. Amblin Television’s Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey co-executive produce alongside Playtone’s Steven Shareshian. In addition to writing, Orloff co-executive produces. Graham Yost also serves as co-executive producer. Anna Boden & Ryan Fleck, Cary Joji Fukunaga, Dee Rees and Tim Van Patten serve as directors.

    I had the privilege of meeting Alexander Jefferson in 2015, he was 93 years old then - but I remember him saying that day that he promised to live to be 100 years old and he kept his promise. He was often at airshows signing posters and his book. He was an example of a person who exemplified what it was to be American - he was serving a country that didn't support him at the time but he somehow knew that the future by his example would change that.

    We need this music on the soundtrack album. Why do they always do this with music pieces not being included?!?!
  • it’s so crazy that Rosie’s actual grandson was able to play a part in this show
  • @codyn.8225
    Thank you Hanks, Spielberg, and Goetzman for making this series. Thank you Donald Miller for the story. Thank you to the 100th and the entire USAAF and every other military branch who served their country WWII

    Do not mourn that they have passed...rejoice that they had lived. ... RIP.
  • @TheCallisto2010
    Can you please add this song to the soundtrack album? Or simply as a single onto the Apple Music please??
  • @TailspinMedia
    WOW. How lucky was Alexander Jefferson to live to see 100 years after all he went through. And glad some of the others lived a long life too. Such an insane story and time
  • @Kurt-Wehde
    Anyone know where I can find this music track? Sounds like a rendition of the main theme Soar but it’s not on the official soundtrack
  • @johnnyrod9262
    I thank God for our veterans. May God rest their souls.

    The greatest generation, like we have never seen and likely not ever see again ...

    1. This song (and the score during the 25 mission flyby) really need to be added to the soundtrack to consider it complete. 2. Rosenthal’s awards list fails to mention he received the Distinguished Service Cross for the raid over Berlin when he bailed out to the Russians. Rosie was literally more decorated than Winters.
  • I have been weeping for All the Brave men who gave up their futures and lives are truly the Greatest Generation of any time 😢
  • @67beatlefreak
    What a group of exemplary Americans. My gratitude to each and every one of them and the millions of past and present military members. They fought a war and came home to continue their public service.

    Actor who played Harry Crosby is John Wilkes Booth in AppleTV's Manhunt.
  • @jacoba7275
    This song needs to be on the album and so does the song from the teaser trailer
  • @martinsuk8085
    Ta hudba mě fakt dojala, až jsem se rozplakal stejně jako v té hudbě Bratrstvo neohrožených.😥😢😭
