NEW YORK, June 16 (UPI) -- F1, Better Call Saul and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri star Kerry Condon says she got to know her Pressure co-star Brendan Fraser when they were both on the 2023 awards circuit promoting other films.

Fraser was scooping up statuettes for The Whale, while Condon was nominated for her performance in The Banshees of Inisherin.

Available on video-on-demand platforms Tuesday, Pressure is based on David Haig's stage play, which takes place in the 72 hours before U.S. General Dwight D. Eisenhower's planned D-Day invasion when the leader is suddenly faced with conflicting weather reports from two respected meteorologists and must decide who to listen to.

Fraser plays Eisenhower in the World War II picture, while Condon plays his assistant Kay Summersby, and Andrew Scott and Chris Messina play rival weather-predictors James Stagg and Irving P. Krick.
