Drawing on his cinematic legacy and collaboration with historian Jon Meacham, the series will chronicle the entire conflict, from 1939 to 1945, exploring themes of freedom, ideology, and the echoes of racial and theological superiority still present today. Hanks, inspired by childhood memories and relentless curiosity, insists this isn’t his final word on WWII — every new discovery fuels his next project.
