CATCH-22 Season 1 Photos

Hulu is adapting CATCH-22, based on the Joseph Heller novel, as a six-part limited series that is set to bow Spring 2019.
Per the streaming service, “CATCH-22 is the story of the incomparable, artful dodger, Yossarian (Christopher Abbott), a US Air Force bombardier in World War II who is furious because thousands of peoplehe has never met are trying to kill him. But his real problem is not the enemy, but rather his own army which keeps increasing the number of missions the men must fly to complete their service. Yet if Yossarian makes any attempt to avoid his military assignments, he’ll be in violation of Catch-22, a hilariously sinister bureaucratic rule which specifies that a concern for one’s own safety in the face of dangers which are real and immediate is the process of a rational mind; a man is considered insane if he willingly continues to fly dangerous combat missions, but a request to be removed from duty is evidence of sanity and therefore makes him ineligible to be relieved from duty.” The series also stars Kyle Chandler, Hugh Laurie, and George Clooney (who directed two episodes).

Catch-22
Catch-22 -- Episode 6 -- Looked after by Italian villagers, Yossarian dreams of never leaving. But American soldiers find him, and back at base he tries to be sent home on the basis of his almost-lost testicle. A young flyer, Snowden, dies on a mission, in Yossarian’s arms. Yossarian refuses to wear clothes. Naked, he accepts a medal; observes Snowden’s funeral; rejects Milo; welcomes a new recruit. And naked – spirit somewhere between broken and euphoric – he flies another mission. Youssarian (Christopher Abbott) shown. (Photo by: Philipe Antonello / Hulu)
