I’ve been following this new mini-series since it was announced. The Pacific will air sometime at the end of 2009/beginning of 2010 on HBO and it’s from the team that brought you Band of Brothers. Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks are once again producing and Joe Mazzello (Corporal Eugene “Sledgehammer” Sledge), James Badge Dale (Private First Class Robert Leckie) and Jon Seda (Gunnery Sergeant John Basilone) are starring. The new series will be about the United States Marine Corps’s actions in the Pacific Theater of Operations.
