Andrew Scott

She's not a million miles apart in terms of her characterisation in this to Sybil.

The other film that I was thinking of... thinking of her that she's in is a film called the beautiful fantastic which is kind of it's kind of like british amelie but nowhere near as good um it's got like tom wilkinson and andrew scott in it and jeremy irving and anna chancellor she's in that in 2016 she was also in the riot club which has um max irons jeremy irons's son in it

um she was also in a biopic of morrissey called england is mine And she was in a 2018 version of Hamlet as well, if you ever come with that.

Interesting.

If you wanna hear more about, like, an overview of a career, the screen talks.

So for example, this year we have Andrew Scott, um, who will be, um, in our opening night film, Elsinore, which is already getting great write-ups, and it's an incredible performance, so I feel like that will be, like, a really, uh, amazing one to, um, attend, 'cause he's just got ...

He just has, he's just such a talented actor.

Um, I think there'll be a lot anticipation for John Malkovich, just because he doesn't do a lot of conversations, in-person conversations.

Pressure.

Andrew Scott and Brendan Fraser star in the World War II weather film.

And it's an interesting idea, but I caught it earlier in the year.

And basically it's men standing around in rooms shouting about the weather for most of the run time.

But he's in the UK because he's doing press for this film at the minute with Andrew

Scott.

So Andrew Scott or Brendan Fraser, I'd be quite happy to have them.

That would be amazing.

and if

they go any longer, the Germans are going to figure it out that something's not quite right so falls in the hands of the um british um scottish actually um meteorologists to give a go and he butts head with the american meteorologist who says no we're fine to go because he goes by american one goes by past events you know so in 1912 with the same event happened at this point this is what happened whereas the scottish one goes with more of what this is science-based this is what will happen and they have to make a decision on whether or not they can go for d-day it's interesting in the film you get Andrew Scott he plays the Scottish meteorologist you've got Brendan Fraser he plays Dwight Eisenhower you've got Kerry Condon plays sort of like a attache to Eisenhower you've got Chris Messina who we saw in based on a true story he plays a husband oh yeah very handsome man he is the other he's American meteorologist who has been working on like the works in Hollywood he was a The guy who worked on, like, Gone With The Wind and Guaranteed Good Weather when they're building Atlanta and all that kind of stuff.

And also Damien Lewis plays Monty, the British general.

General.

The new film Pressure is out this weekend, telling the true story of the weatherman behind the change of date for D-Day.

Andrew Scott plays Group Captain James Stagg, the chief meteorological advisor in 1944, a Scotsman who knew his weather.

He predicted a brief break from the most violent of the summer storms, which led General Eisenhower to move the date of the Allied invasion from the 5th to the 6th of June.

Here is Stagg talking to a young Jonathan Dimbleby in 1964.

I mean, obviously, you have Michael Kudlitz and David Schwimmer and Ron Livingston and Damian Lewis and Scott Grimes.

But in smaller roles, for many of them, there's some of their first roles, Michael Fassbender, Dominic Cooper, James McAvoy, Tom Hardy, Stephen Graham, Simon Pegg, Andrew Scott.

The list is just amazing of the actors that are on this show.

British actors, American actors, sometimes playing the opposite.

No, I, yeah.

I'm more interested to, you know, obviously Ian Charleston is going to be in the, you know, with Elsinore this year with Andrew Scott.

It's about him and his final sort of stage performance.

I'm more interested in that than Chariots of Fire.
