If the cracks are thick use drywall adhesive then easy fill

Didnt you have a cornice job recently? The adhesive you used should do it if it was fibrefix.

If it's in the corners and it's quite wide maybe PVA and fill with a hessian scrim mixed in the gear.

I use drywall with fibre tape and never had a call back on cracks. Can't beat it.

Drywall is just a base coat. It's a bit long winded but worth no comebacks .skim as usual when it's dry.

With proper cornice adhesive there is no need to pva just wet the areas a little beforehand but agree with Flynny to use hessian is similar with large cracks.
Let that set and fill again with just filler and carve the finish with small tools and water/brushes.
