This article from Collider marks the 25th anniversary of Band of Brothers, the acclaimed 10-part World War II miniseries co-created by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg, noting that it remains a major streaming success on HBO and video-on-demand platforms. It frames the show within Hanks's broader, career-long commitment to the WWII genre, positioning it as a continuing cultural touchstone a quarter of a century after its premiere.

Hanks wrote all 10 episodes and directed one of them, reuniting with Spielberg just three years after their WWII film Saving Private Ryan. The series is now streaming on HBO as well as VOD services such as Prime Video and Apple TV, and features an ensemble of well-known names including Donnie Wahlberg, Neal McDonough, Michael Fassbender, David Schwimmer, Stephen Graham, Colin Hanks, Simon Pegg and Tom Hardy. The piece also references Hanks's other WWII projects, including the Apple TV series Masters of the Air, the film Greyhound (which is getting a sequel), and the documentary series World War II with Tom Hanks.
