In our new releases from PGGB members and partners this week, we're highlighting:
From the producers of Band of Brothers and The Pacific, Steven Spielberg, Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman are adding a new miniseries to the collection. This time focusing on the airmen of the 100th Bomb Group who were able to form a brotherhood through courage, loss and triumph while risking their lives during World War II.
Flying in today, Masters of the Air drops exclusively onto Apple TV, featuring eighteen PGGB Members, as well as seven Partners who worked on this production.
Drama series Trigger Point follows experienced bomb disposal officer, Lana Washington as she works for the Metropolitan Police force. The new season sees Lana back from a secondment and giving a routine talk to security officers when an explosion rocks the heart of the city. Returning to the small screen Sunday 28th January 2024 on ITV, PGGB had four Members who were part of this show.
Also in television, the long-anticipated Nicole Kidman-led series, Expats looks at the personal and professional lives of a tight-knit group of expatriates living in Hong Kong. Arriving on Amazon Prime Video today, PGGB had one Member on this production.
Finally, a new movie-musical about a woman facing many hardships in her life, but ultimately finds strength and hope in the unbreakable bonds of sisterhood. The Colour Purple hits cinemas today and had one Member and Partner involved with the production.
