The massive ensemble cast includes Austin Butler, Callum Turner, Barry Keoghan, Ncuti Gatwa, Anthony Boyle, Nate Mann, Josiah Cross, Branden Cook, and Rafferty Law. 

Below, we've got everything you need to watch the Apple TV Plus show, with details on how many episodes there are and how to stream the series.

Masters of the Air is a miniseries, so there will be no second season. No continuation plans have been announced, and Band of Brothers and The Pacific are both one season each. 

But, if you're eager for more, a documentary named The Bloody Hundredth and narrated by Tom Hanks is also available to watch on Apple TV Plus.
