About Twisters

Twisters is a 2024 American disaster film directed by Lee Isaac Chung and written by Mark L. Smith, based on a story by Joseph Kosinski. A standalone sequel to Twister (1996), the ensemble cast includes Daisy Edgar-Jones, Glen Powell, Anthony Ramos, Brandon Perea, Maura Tierney, and Sasha Lane. It follows clashing groups of storm chasers who investigate a tornado outbreak in Oklahoma. Talks for a sequel to Twister began in 2020, with Kosinski pitching an idea to Warner Bros. Helen Hunt, who starred in the original, had also expressed interest in developing a follow-up that was ultimately rejected. Several other directors were approached before Chung was hired in December 2022. The cast joined in early-2023 and filming took place around Oklahoma that summer, with a brief hiatus due to the SAG-AFTRA strike. Twisters premiered at the Empire Leicester Square in London on July 8, 2024, and was released internationally by Warner Bros. Pictures on July 10, and in the United States and Canada by Universal Pictures on July 19. It received generally positive reviews from critics and grossed over $372 million worldwide on a $155 million budget.
