The story centres on James Stagg (Scott), Britain\u2019s Chief Meteorological Officer, who was entrusted with the responsibility of providing the weather forecast, a decision that would determine the success or failure of the Normandy invasion. \u201cIn the 72 hours leading up to D-Day, all the pieces are in place except for one key element \u2014 the British weather. Britain\u2019s Chief Meteorological Officer James Stagg is called upon to deliver the most consequential forecast in history, locking him into a tense standoff with the entire Allied leadership.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe wrong conditions could devastate the largest-ever seaborne invasion, while any delay risks German intelligence catching on. With only his trusted aide Captain Kay Summersby to confide in, and haunted by a catastrophic D-Day rehearsal, the final decision rests with Supreme Allied Commander Dwight D. Eisenhower. With only hours to go, the fate of the war and the lives of millions hang in the balance,\u201d reads the synopsis reported by Deadline<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Directed by Anthony Maras (Hotel Mumbai<\/i>), Pressure<\/i> is based on Olivier Award winner David Haig\u2019s critically acclaimed play. The screenplay is co-written by Haig and Maras. Additional casting is underway.<\/p>\n
