It’s a total coincidence that Ken Burns and David Schmidt’s six-part documentary series “The American Revolution” was released by PBS in November 2025, less than a year ahead of the United States’ 250th anniversary.
“That wasn’t even on anyone’s horizon,” said Burns while talking with Variety’s Senior Artisans Editor Jazz Tangcay. “I didn’t realize then that it would be a 10-year labor, that we would explode all of the preconceptions that we have and that we would come out as we did.”
