Apple TV+ has turned to the producers of Emmy winner 9/11: One Day In America to tell the story of the Vietnam War.



72 Films, the Fremantle-owned British production company, will blend archive footage with first-hand testimony for the six-part documentary Vietnam: The War That Changed America.



Created to mark the 50th anniversary of the fall of Saigon, the series brings together soldiers and civilians from all sides who experienced the conflict.

Each episode features reunions and the emotional stories of people faced with painful life-or-death situations and impossible moral decisions.

Vietnam: The War That Changed America is directed by Rob Coldstream, who co-directed John Lennon: Murder Without a Trial for Apple last year with 72 Films.

Caroline Marsden (9/11: One Day In America) produces. Executive producers are David Glover (9/11: One Day in America) and Mark Raphael (Crime and Punishment).

Nat Geo's 9/11: One Day in America told the story of the terrorist attack in New York from the first impact to the final rescue. It won the News and Documentary Emmy Award for Outstanding Historical Documentary.
