The Cast of ‘Masters Of The Air’ Attends FYC Live Orchestra Screening and Q+A Event
Apple TV+ hosted a special Masters Of The Air FYC Live Orchestra Screening and Q+A event this past Saturday, May 4 at the Saban Theatre. Austin Butler, Callum Turner, Anthony Boyle, Nate Mann, Rafferty Law, Branden Cook, Josiah Cross, director Dee Rees, and executive producer Gary Goetzman were all on hand for the event, as well as the after party at the Apple TV+ Emmy House.
“Based on 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.
Ranging in location from the bucolic fields and villages of southeast England, to the harsh deprivations of a German prisoner-of-war camp, and depicting a unique and crucial time in world history, “Masters of the Air” is enormous in both scale and scope, and a genuine cinematic achievement.”
