Daisy Edgar-Jones, Anthony Ramos and Glen Powell chase storms in the standalone sequel to the 1996 disaster movie Twister.
Twister, starring Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton, remains a classic of the disaster movie genre 28 years after its release.
It’s surprising that it’s taken that long to bring another iteration to the big screen in the form of Twisters, a standalone sequel with very little connective tissue to the original.

However, she is lured back into the field by her old friend Javi (Anthony Ramos), who wants her help him take 3D scans of tornadoes for his new hi-tech company.
Just like in the original, there are two teams going after the tornadoes of Oklahoma, and Kate and Javi’s group are routinely pestered by storm-chasing YouTuber Tyler Owens (Glen Powell) and his motley crew.
