Masters of the Air star talks the upcoming war drama and working with "beautiful actor" Austin Butler
EXCLU🐻SIVE | Callum Turner teases the latest show from the team behind ꦿBand of Brothers and The Pacific

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Masters of the Air is without a doubt one of the most 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:highly anticipated TV shows of the year. Produced by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks, it serves as a companion piece to their other two war dramas Band of Brothers and The Pacific. This time however the focus is on the United States Army Air Force, following the story of the 100th Bomb Group who were nicknamed the 'Bloody Hundredth' due to the heavy losses they suffered during combat missions against the Nazis. And if that hasn't already got you excited about the series, the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:cast list certainly will as it stars - deep breath - Austin Butler, Ncuti Gatwa, Bar🤪ry Keoghan, Callum Turner, and many more.
It's a project Turner can't wait to release to the world, as he revealed on the recent press tour for his new movie 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Boys in the Boat. For that sports drama the actor 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:trained for five months to be able to portray the🌠 real-life Olympic medal-winning rower Joe Rantz. And in order to play Major John Egan in Masters🔴 of the Air, a similar level of preparation was required.
However, as Turner revealed whilst in conversation with GamesRadar+ and the , it was a very different process: "The training for that was completely different as it was more academic rather than physical. We couldn't fly the planes for real so we had to learn everything. At that time, I could tell you how to take off and land a Boeing B-17 as we all had to learn that. Actually - you know, Joe Rantz went on to work for Boeing, helping to build planes. Maybe I should keep moving in that direction then, and just go work for Boeing!" Whilst it is a neat connection betw🐓een his two projects, we do hope that Turner continues with the acting gig!
Turner also spoke about working alongside Butler, who received critical acclaim for his lead role in Elvis and will also be seen in Dune 2 later this year. After rejecting internet rumors that Butler still had his Elvis accent on-set (sorry Twitter), Turner praised his co-star's talent: "He 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:finished Elvis then came to us, with maybe four days off in-between. He's completely different in our show. He has go𝄹t this John Wayne thing about him. He's a b🗹eautiful actor and I loved working with him."
Well, consider us fully sold!
The Boys in the Boat is out in US theaters now and will release in UK cinemas on Friday 12th Ja✅nuary. Masters of the Air meanwhile will debut on Apple TV Plus on 26th January.
For more from our interview with Turner alongside The Boys in the Boat director George Clooney, we also spoke to the pair about 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:training for their new sports drama and why 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:casting Hitler for the film was a strange experience.
