"Das Boot" is a German TV series produced for Sky, based on the 1973 book of the same name by Lothar-Gunther Buchheim, and its sequel "Die Festung". Created by Johannes W. Betz and Tony Saint, the show is also a sequel to Wolfgang Petersen's 1981 big screen adaptation of the novel, and it's set nine months after the film's setting of December 1941.
The plot focuses on the narratives of the upcoming Resistance in La Rochelle and the claustrophobic life aboard U-612. The cast features Rick Okon, Vicky Krieps, Robert Stadlober, Leonard Schleicher, James D'Arcy, Kevin McNally and Lizzy Caplan.
"Das Boot" premiered on November 23, 2018 on Sky, and on June 17, 2019 via Hulu.
