The featured episode “takes audiences inside the stealth bomber’s operations through the eyes of a pilot, wife, mother and combat leader, alongside the service members who support the mission,” according to an official logline. “Forrest Gump” star Gary Sinise narrates the series.

All six episodes of “The Watch” will be available to stream on Prime Video in November following the limited theatrical run.

“Most people know America possesses nuclear weapons, but few understand the human heartbeat behind them,” says showrunner Jeff Bolton. “The average age of the military men and women holding this extraordinary, destructive power is a mere 28 years old. These are real people with families, living with the weight of decisions that could dramatically alter the entire course of human history. ‘The Watch’ gives a global audience a front-row seat to their story and the mission they carry out every day.”

“The Watch: America’s Nuclear Mission” was created by Bolton of NFN Productions, who also serves as the executive producer with Gerry Byrne. The series is directed by Ted Schillinger. Producers include Steven Chester Prince of Check Engine Films, alongside Carissa Buffel and Kevin Matusow of The Traveling Picture Show Company.
