A new Netflix documentary Five Came Back hits the streaming service at the end of the month, and we have the very first trailer to share. The three-part series is adapted from Mark Harris’ best-selling book, “Five Came Back: A Story of Hollywood and the Second World War,” and is directed by Laurent Bouzereau.
Five Came Back tells the extraordinary story of how Hollywood changed World War II – and how World War II changed Hollywood, through the interwoven experiences of five filmmakers who interrupted their successful careers to serve their country, risk their lives and bring the truth back to the American people: John Ford, William Wyler, John Huston, Frank Capra, and George Stevens. To guide viewers through the different personalities, interweaving chronologies and globe-trotting locales, the Five Came Back team turned to the voices of five modern cinematic masters: Steven Spielberg, Francis Ford Coppola, Guillermo Del Toro, Paul Greengrass and Lawrence Kasdan.
Three-time Oscar-winner Meryl Streep provides the narration for Five Came Back, which debuts on Netflix on March 31, 2017. Here’s the first trailer.
