About American Skyjacker
The true tale of Martin McNally, a man who hijacked an American Airlines plane in 1972 in an attempt to repeat what the infamous DB Cooper did 6 months prior, and led authorities on a 5 day manhunt across the country. However this was just the beginning of one of the wildest true crime stories ever. This is the documentary version of the Top 20 Apple podcast American Skyjacker.
Directed by Eli Kooris, Joshua Shaffer, American Skyjacker leans on a strong ensemble — Martin McNally, Logan Spahitz, Angela Barber — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2025.
