The much-anticipated “Twisters,” directed by Lee Isaac Chung, is set to hit theaters on July 19, 2024. Widely recognized for its thrilling portrayal of tornadoes, the extended trailer promises an immersive experience filled with intense action and emotional depth.
Star-Powered Cast and Team
The film stars Glen Powell as Tyler Owens, a pivotal character caught in the chaotic grip of nature’s fury. The trailer showcases Powell alongside Daisy Edgar-Jones, who plays Kate Cooper, a former storm chaser.
Director’s Personal Connection to Tornadoes
Chung’s personal experiences have heavily influenced the film’s approach. Tornadoes have always fascinated me as a storyteller, and I wanted to explore the emotional and psychological impact these natural phenomena have on people.
Building Anticipation with the Trailer
The first glimpse of this sequel was revealed during the 2024 Super Bowl, drawing massive attention. Fans of the original 1996 hit Twister will find new thrills in this reimagined chapter.
A New Chapter Begins
The movie marks a fresh start for the franchise. Instead of rehashing old characters, Chung introduces new dynamics. Kate Cooper’s journey from a desk-bound former chaser back into the eye of the storm is both compelling and relatable.

The combination of hot summer weather and air-conditioned theaters could propel Twisters to significant box office success. Historically speaking, Jan de Bont’s Twister amassed $41M in its opening weekend back in 1996.
Comparisons with Original Twister Film
The original Twister, featuring Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton, set a high bar with its intense depiction of storm chasing – something that Twisters aims to expand upon.
Engaging Storytelling and Special Effects
The trailer gives viewers a taste of what’s to come: dramatic weather phenomena captured with stunning special effects, intertwined with the human stories at the heart of these events.
