There are so many 2026 movies I cannot wait to see this year, and more are getting announced all the time. One that recently came up that I’m already making plans to see is Pressure, an upcoming military movie where Brendan Fraser will play Dwight D. Eisenhower, the Supreme Allied Commander in World War II. However, that’s not the only reason I’m circling May 29, 2026, on my calendar.
Unlike so many other movies, shows, and video games (looking at you, Medal of Honor: Frontline) that have placed audiences in the middle of the Allied invasion of Normandy in Operation Overlord, Anthony Maras’s upcoming book-to-screen adaptation is taking a different approach. That, on top of a few other reasons, has me so excited to see Pressure later this year.
