StudioCanal has released the gripping new teaser trailer for ‘Pressure,’ an intense World War II drama that tells the extraordinary true story behind one of the most critical decisions of the Second World War.

Set during the final days before the Normandy invasion, ‘Pressure’ follows Britain’s chief meteorological officer James Stagg (Andrew Scott), who is tasked with delivering what would become the most consequential weather forecast in modern history.

With Allied forces poised to launch the largest seaborne invasion ever attempted, Stagg finds himself at the centre of a mounting crisis. Poor weather conditions threaten to derail the operation and cost countless lives, while any postponement risks alerting German forces to the Allies’ plans.

As tensions rise among military commanders, Stagg faces immense pressure from the Allied leadership while wrestling with the memory of a disastrous D-Day rehearsal. His closest confidante is Captain Kay Summersby (Kerry Condon), while the final decision rests with Supreme Allied Commander Dwight D. Eisenhower (Brendan Fraser).

With only hours remaining before the operation begins, the fate of the war and millions of lives hang in the balance.

Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Anthony Maras, ‘Pressure’ boasts an award-winning ensemble led by Andrew Scott, Brendan Fraser, and Kerry Condon. The supporting cast includes Golden Globe and Emmy Award winner Damian Lewis (Billions, Homeland, Band of Brothers) as Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery and Chris Messina (Air, Sharp Objects) as renowned American meteorologist Irving P. Krick.
