Many Lancaster residents drove to Chester in hopes of seeing Heston and other actors like Billy Dee Williams and Wayne Rogers. Downtown Chester became a huge set for filming interior and exterior scenes for the movie. 

The three-part miniseries aired that November on CBS. 

The miniseries, based on a novel by Stuart Woods, was nominated for three Emmy Awards.
