Ethan Morse

Ethan Morse is Producer, Filmmaker and Co-Founder for Time to Kill Productions.

Ethan Morse grew up on the icy cold farmlands of Northern New York, in the sleepy town of Potsdam. Growing up on a dairy farm meant milking cows and driving tractors 365 days a year. The long hours and monotonous chores gave Ethan plenty of time to daydream about heading to Hollywood to make movies.

Being cast as an extra on the epic Civil War film “Gods and Generals” was the big break Ethan had always imagined. But his dream of being a filmmaker was quickly overshadowed by the events of 9/11, and lead to his enlistment in the U.S. Army as an Airborne Infantry soldier. He too was recruited to go to The Old Guard while in Basic Combat Training.

Ethan Morse is also featured on our premiere Features Page, and you can read their podcast interview transcript.

We are the Mighty reported, “Neal Schrodetzki and Ethan Morse, who served together as guards at the Tomb, have created a docu-series about the intense training cycles that prepare soldiers for The Regiment, the Honor Guard Caisson Platoon, the U.S. Army Drill Team, or a Full-Honors funeral ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery.

The four-part Sam Elliott-narrated series has been acquired by Amazon and it will debut online digitally Christmas Day. The series will then arrive on more than 50 streaming services throughout 2021.

The four-part docuseries took more than three years to complete, and showcases four unique specialty platoons of the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment in Washington D.C. Also known as The Old Guard, the 3rd Infantry Regiment is perhaps best known for hosting the Sentinels who guard the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

Neal and Ethan were ecstatic to have Hollywood legend and Air Force veteran Sam Elliott as the narrator for the series.”
