Andrew Scott Made Me Watch ‘Pressure’ and Now I Can't Stop Checking the Forecast

from The Parting Shot with H. Alan Scott

Andrew Scott sat down with Newsweek’s H. Alan Scott to talk ‘Pressure,’ the WWII film where he plays James Stagg, the meteorologist who convinced Eisenhower to delay D-Day. We talk about his approach to complicated characters, why he's never interested in being liked on screen, his career and the kinds of projects he can't say no to. Plus he defends British people and their weather obsession and honestly? He's not wrong. And yes, the question was asked about his appearance on the final season of ‘The Comeback.’ Subscribe to my newsletter: https://for-the-culture.beehiiv.com Follow me: https://linktr.ee/halanscott See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
