There's a wikipedia entry too (linky) which states it'll be released in 2009.

Wasn't band of brothers a joint effort between BBC & HBO??? No mention of BBC involvement for The Pacific...

No he's right, BBC had a hand in Band of Brothers alright,

Cato

damn hope BBC would be involved in this also, two of them have never failed in previous collaborations to deliver nothing short of excellence in their projects, Rome and Band of Brothers comes to mind.

Boo bloody urns. Nearly a year away if thats true.:mad:

I hate knowing about things coming so far in advance.

I have the BoB box set and will also look foreward to this epic

Brilliant news thanks. The European campaign was tough, but I think the Pacific campaign was much tougher. Say it will be land based again, cant imagine them recreating the Battle Of Midway?

For the European campaign they used the story of Dick Winters, who was interviewed in The Lost Evidence (documentary). Probably likely that they will use the story of one of the soldiers from the Pacific episodes of The Lost Evidence?

Cheers for the info. Hadn't heard about this till you posted it.
Loved Band of Brothers. The fact that its was based on real men and some of them spoke in it at the start or end, was even more outstanding.
Have the original boxset and now the blu-ray set. In 5.1 surround sound, its even better on my 46 inch LED flat screen. Stunning piece of work!

Look forwards to the new production. Hope its as good in quality over all.

The Trailer:
