Legacy

For years, various producers have attempted to adapt Weber’s 2010 Hitler’s First War into a TV mini-series. Currently, this project is being considered by the Berlin-based UFA-Fiction and Beta Film as a limited 10-episode series.[4] Simply called Hitler, the TV series will trace Hitler’s life beginning as a soldier in World War I to his rise to power.[5]
