Based on an Israeli TV show, Echo 3 is scheduled to premiere on Apple TV+ later this year. It’s all stocked up with an impressive lineup for a cast and a compelling storyline. Echo 3 is inspired by the TV show When Heroes Fly, which is based on the eponymous novel written by Amir Gufreund.
However, the show is written by journalist Mark Boal, who’s known for writing and producing the Academy-Award-winning movie The Hurt Locker.
