Twisters (2024)
From the producers of the Jurassic, Bourne and Indiana Jones franchises comes Twisters, a current-day chapter of the 1996 blockbuster Twister.
Directed by Oscar nominee Lee Isaac Chung (Minari), Twisters stars Golden Globe nominee Daisy Edgar-Jones (Normal People, Where the Crawdads Sing) and Glen Powell (Anyone But You, Hitman, Top Gun: Maverick) as opposing forces who come together to try to predict, and possibly tame, the immense power of tornadoes.
The 19th biggest box office hit of 2024 globally, Twisters was nominated for a Golden Globe for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement, as well a Grammy award for its soundtrack.
Twisters was the fifth highest-rated Action & Adventure Movie of 2024 on Rotten Tomatoes, where the critics’ consensus says: “Summoning a storm of spectacle and carried along by the gale force winds of Glen Powell’s charisma, Twisters’ forecast is splendid with a high chance of thrills.”
