Twisters opened to an impressive $80 million, making it the year’s third-highest debut after Inside Out 2 and Dune: Part 2. Lee Isaac Chung directs this film, which serves as a new chapter rather than a direct continuation of the 1996 hit Twister.
The film, starring Daisy Edgar-Jones and Glen Powell, follows meteorologist Kate Cooper (Edgar-Jones) and tornado chaser Tyler Owens (Powell) as they face powerful storms and assist affected communities in Oklahoma.
While Twisters has received positive reviews for its nostalgic and thrilling adventure, critics have questioned its lack of emphasis on romantic subplots. Chung, best known for Minari, has been praised for creating an engaging blockbuster that captures the essence of classic adventure films.
At the end of Twisters (2024), Kate takes a risk by driving Tyler’s pickup into the path of an F5 tornado. Her strategy is to release a solution of sodium polyacrylate and silver iodine to destabilise and collapse the tornado.
Despite being severely flung around, Kate successfully discharges the combination, causing the tornado to dissipate and rescuing the town and its inhabitants, including Tyler and Javi. After the threat has passed, Kate emerges from the wreckage, and Tyler and Javi hurry to help her.
At the end of Twisters (2024), Kate and Tyler have an important moment at the airport. Tyler is inspired by Kate’s words and pursues her as she prepares to return to New York.
While they do not express their romantic feelings with a kiss, their connection is clear, laying the groundwork for a future romance. The film concludes with them leaving the airport together, implying a deeper relationship to be explored in subsequent instalments.
Scott, a member of the Storm Par team, is torn between morality and following investor Marshall Riggs’ orders to collect data during the tornado crisis. Javi opts to prioritise saving lives over corporate orders, leaving Scott behind. The film leaves Scott’s fate ambiguous, emphasising Javi’s ethical decision.
