Pressure is the compelling, true story of the extremely stressful 72 hours leading up to D-Day. While the fate of the free world hangs in the balance, British meteorologist Captain James Stagg (Andrew Scott, All of Us Strangers) must convince the Allied military leadership to postpone the planned invasion because of the predicted bad weather. Generaal Eisenhower (Brendan Fraser, The Whale) faces a nearly impossible decision: proceeding could cost thousands of soldiers their lives, but postponement could jeopardize the entire operation – and potentially the war.
From the producers of Oscarwinnaar Darkest Hour comes a nerve-wracking historical drama about three days in which one weather forecast helped determine the course of history.
