In regard to the film's plot, OVERLORD takes place on the eve of D-Day, a group of American paratroopers are dropped behind enemy lines to carry out a mission crucial to the invasion’s success. But as they approach their target, they begin to realize there is more going on in this Nazi-occupied village than a simple military operation.
OVERLORD is set to begin filming this May in the U.K.
