Pressure follows the tense seventy-two hours leading up to D-Day as military leaders and meteorologists race against time while facing impossible decisions that could alter the course of World War II. With dangerous weather conditions threatening Operation Overlord, General Dwight D. Eisenhower and meteorologist James Stagg are forced to weigh uncertainty against the lives of thousands of soldiers preparing for one of history’s most significant invasions. As pressure mounts and time begins running out, every decision carries enormous consequences.

Directed by Anthony Maras and written by Maras and David Haig, Pressure stars Andrew Scott as James Stagg alongside Brendan Fraser as Dwight D. Eisenhower, with Kerry Condon, Chris Messina, and Damian Lewis rounding out the ensemble cast. Based on Haig’s stage play, the historical drama tells the story behind one of World War II’s most critical moments.
