‘The Offer’: Making Of ‘The Godfather’ Series Gets Premiere Date On Paramount+

Paramount+ has set April 28 for the premiere of The Offer, its anticipated limited event series about the making of The Godfather, starring Miles Teller.

The first three episodes of the 10-episode series will stream at launch. The remaining seven episodes will be available to stream weekly on Thursdays.

The Offer is based on two-time Oscar-winning producer Al Ruddy’s (Teller), experience of making the iconic 1972 film The Godfather that Francis Ford Coppola directed and adapted with Mario Puzo from Puzo’s bestselling novel. The movie starred Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, James Caan, John Cazale, Robert Duvall, Diane Keaton and Talia Shire; it was nominated for 11 Oscars and won three — including Best Picture for Ruddy.
