Oscar-winning director Peter Jackson is set to reveal the secret history of the iconic Dambusters raid in a film remake after purchasing the rights to previously declassified information.The new movie will include details that had previously not been featured, as they had been protected by the Official Secrets Act.The original 1955 film, starring Richard Todd and Michael Redgrave, told of the Operation Chastise which set out to destroy three dams deep within
Germany's Ruhr valley in order to set back the Nazi's war effort, a task that was thought near impossible.However Mr Jackson has now said the movie was a 'romanticised' portrayal and skipped out on vital details due to the secrecy act that was in place.He has now confirmed his plans for a remake after trying to get the project off the ground for almost ten years.
