The Godfather is widely regarded as one of the best films ever made in the United States, but The Offer, a new limited series premiering on Paramount Plus in April, will tell the tale of how it was made. In keeping with the fact that the year 2022 will mark the 50th anniversary of the release of the 1972 film.
At the time of its initial release, Francis Ford Coppola’s The Godfather, with its all-star cast that included the likes of John Cazale and Talia Shire as well as Marlon Brando and Al Pacino, was a worldwide phenomenon.
Marlon Brando’s portrayal of Don Vito Corleone won Best Actor and Best Picture at the Oscars. A great movie is easy to recognize in hindsight, but as The Offer will illustrate, that wasn’t the case as the parts were being put together.
So much can be said about The Godfather’s tale that you could definitely make a film based on all three films. However, The Offer is focusing on the original film.
The Offer: Release Date
On March 24, 1972, The Godfather was released to the public for the first time. The Offer is set to debut in exactly fifty years and one month from that. Streaming the first three episodes of The Offer will begin Thursday, April 28; the limited series will feature 10 episodes.
The Offer will have a three-episode launch on April 28 and will air every Thursday for the next seven weeks. As a result, the finale will premiere on June 16.
The Godfather trilogy will be available to stream on Paramount Plus on April 28 in addition to The Offer. Watch the original The Godfather, as well as the sequels Part II and Coda: the Death of Michael Corleone, and then check out how The Offer came to be.

What will be the storyline of The Offer?
The creation of The Godfather has been the subject of many publications, including producer Robert Evans’ The Kid Stays in the Picture and Mark Seal’s Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli. Rather than relying on Albert S. Ruddy’s “unprecedented experiences” on the set of The Godfather, The Offer is based on his memoirs. This is all we know about The Offer so far, but as you can see in the teaser, there’s a lot going on as the pieces are placed together to become The Godfather.
