A new trailer has been released for "Pressure," the upcoming D-Day drama set in the 72 hours before the June 6, 1944 Normandy invasion.
The film centers on General Dwight D. Eisenhower and Captain James Stagg as they weigh whether weather conditions justify launching the operation or delaying it.
"Pressure" stars Andrew Scott, Brendan Fraser, Kerry Condon, Chris Messina and Damian Lewis, with Anthony Maras directing.
The story revisits the largest amphibious assault in history—about 156,000 Allied troops, backed by more than 7,000 ships and 11,000 aircraft, landed in Normandy.
The movie arrives May 29 as annual D-Day commemorations continue in Normandy and the number of surviving veterans keeps shrinking.
