Nov. 9 (UPI) -- Apple TV+ is giving a glimpse of the new series Masters of the Air.

The streaming service shared a teaser trailer for the World War II drama Thursday featuring Austin Butler (Elvis).

Masters of the Air is based on the Donald L. Miller book of the same name, which follows the U.S. Air Force's 100th Bombardment Group, known as the Bloody Hundreth, as they conduct perilous bombing raids over Nazi Germany.

The show is executive produced by Steven Spielberg, Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman, who previously collaborated on Band of Brothers and The Pacific.

Austin Butler stars with Callum Turner, Anthony Boyle, Nate Mann, Rafferty Law, Barry Keoghan, Josiah Cross, Branden Cook and Ncuti Gatwa.

"Portraying the psychological and emotional price paid by these young men as they helped destroy the horror of Hitler's Third Reich, is at the heart of Masters of the Air. Some were shot down and captured; some were wounded or killed. And some were lucky enough to make it home. Regardless of individual fate, a toll was exacted on them all," an official synopsis reads.
