The Twisters trailer doesn’t kick off slowly and build to a big tornado reveal. No, it cuts straight to the action, with a devastating tornado filling the trailer’s opening seconds.
Top Gun: Maverick‘s Glen Powell stars as a tornado wrangler whose catchphrase is, “If you feel it, chase it.” The film also stars Daisy Edgar-Jones (Where the Crawdads Sing), Anthony Ramos (In the Heights), Brandon Perea (Nope), Sasha Lane (American Honey), Daryl McCormack (Peaky Blinders), Kiernan Shipka (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina), Nik Dodani (Atypical), and Maura Tierney (Beautiful Boy).
“Twisters stars Golden Globe nominee Daisy Edgar-Jones and Glen Powell as opposing forces who come together to try to predict, and possibly tame, the immense power of tornadoes,” reads Universal Pictures’ synopsis. “Edgar-Jones stars as Kate Cooper, 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, and their competing teams find themselves squarely in the paths of multiple storm systems converging over central Oklahoma in the fight of their lives.”
Oscar-nominated writer-director Lee Isaac Chung (Minari) directs from a screenplay by Mark L. Smith (The Revenant).
Twister, starring Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton, opened in May 2006 and grossed $495 million during its theatrical run. Twisters is set to roar into theaters on July 19, 2024.
