Fans of the original 1996 blockbuster “Twister” have reason to rejoice as a new featurette for the highly anticipated current-day chapter, “Twisters,” has been released. This behind-the-scenes look offers a tantalizing glimpse into the film’s production, showcasing the incredible efforts to bring this storm-chasing adventure to life. Here’s what we learned from the latest featurette and why “Twisters” is shaping up to be one of the most thrilling releases of the year.
Directed by Lee Isaac Chung, the Oscar® nominated writer-director of Minari, Twisters stars Daisy Edgar-Jones (Where the Crawdads Sing), Glen Powell (Top Gun: Maverick) and Anthony Ramos (Transformers: Rise of the Beasts) as equal forces, with opposing motivations, who come together to try to predict, and possibly tame, the immense power of tornadoes.
Edgar-Jones stars as Kate Carter, a former storm chaser haunted by a devastating encounter with a tornado during her college years who now studies storm patterns on screens safely in New York City. She is lured back to the open plains by her friend, Javi (Ramos) to test a groundbreaking new tracking system. There, she crosses paths with Tyler Owens (Powell), the charming and reckless social-media superstar who thrives on posting his storm-chasing adventures with his raucous crew, the more dangerous the better.
As storm season intensifies, terrifying phenomena never seen before are unleashed, and Kate, Tyler, Javi and their crews find themselves squarely in the paths of multiple storm systems converging over central Oklahoma in the fight of their lives.
The new featurette for “Twisters” has successfully whetted the appetite of fans eager to return to the world of storm chasing. With its compelling cast, groundbreaking visual effects, and a storyline that promises both thrills and heart, “Twisters” is poised to be a worthy successor to the original film. As the release date approaches, anticipation continues to build, and it’s clear that this sequel will deliver a cinematic experience like no other.
Prepare to be swept away when “Twisters” hits theaters on July 19, 2024. The storm is coming, and it’s going to be epic.
