Apple has posted a trailer for Fireball, an original feature documentary directed by filmmaker Werner Herzog and professor Clive Oppenheimer, that will premiere on Apple TV+.
Following their Academy Award-nominated work on Encounters at the End of the World and Emmy-nominated Into the Inferno, Herzog and Oppenheimer’s new film Fireball takes viewers on a journey to discover how shooting stars, meteorites and deep impacts have focused the human imagination on other realms and worlds, and on our past and our future.
Fireball is a Werner Herzog Film production and hails from the Oscar nominated, nine-time Emmy-nominated, BAFTA, Emmy, Peabody, Grierson and RTS Award-winning production company Spring Films. The film is produced by André Singer and Lucki Stipetić, executive produced by Richard Melman, and made with the help and support of Sandbox Films
