"I've wanted to do this film for a great many years," said Lucas.
"'The Tuskegee Airmen' were such superb pilots that it was essential for us (ILM) to create visual effects that would live up to their heroism and put audiences in the cockpit with them."
'Red Tails' was the name of the first group of black airmen to serve as pilot escorts for American bombers, over Italy and Germany in 1945. Under President Franklin Roosevelt, the US soldiers were first sent to Tuskegee, Alabama to train. Click the images to enlarge and Sneak Peek "Red Tails"...
