Tom Hanks and Steven Speilberg's "The Pacific" is a $200 million ten-part television World War II miniseries, produced by HBO, Seven Network Australia and DreamWorks, which will premiere on Sky Movies HD from Monday.

It is similar, although unrelated, to Band of Brothers. Whereas Band of Brothers focused on the United States Army's involvement in the European Theater of Operations, the new series will be about United States Marine Corps's actions in the Pacific Theater of Operations.

The Pacific is being spearheaded by Bruce McKenna (co-executive producer), who was one of the main writers on Band of Brothers. Hugh Ambrose, the son of Band of Brothers author Stephen Ambrose, will serve as a project consultant.

It is billed as "An Unmissable Sky Movies Event".

It has been hailed by SKY for quite a while now, although I recently read that there is only about 17 minutes of footage in each 45 min episode due to the lengths of the opening titles and end credits.
