What is The Twisters about?

“Dozens of deadly tornados converge in the Midwest, merging into a mega twister set to obliterate everything for hundreds of miles,” the synopsis for the movie reads.

Twisters releases in theaters later this month

Twisters, meanwhile, is a sequel to 1996’s Twister that releases in theaters on July 19, 2024. Directed by Lee Isaac Chung and written by Mark L. Smith, the film stars Daisy Edgar-Jones, Glen Powell, Anthony Ramos, Brandon Perea, Maura Tierney, Sasha Lane, and David Corenswet.

“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,” the synopsis of Twisters reads. “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.”
