Exclusive: Twisters cast interviews with Glen Powell, Daisy Edgar-Jones, Anthony Ramos, Katy O'Brian, Sasha Lane & Brandon Perea
Hitting theaters on July 19 is Twisters, directed by Lee Isaac Chung and starring Daisy Edgar-Jones, Glen Powell, Anthony Ramos, Brandon Perea, Maura Tierney, Sasha Lane, Harry Hadden-Patton, David Corenswet, Daryl McCormack, Tunde Adebimpe, Katy O’Brian, Nik Dodani, Kiernan Shipka, and Paul Scheer.
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 (Golden Globe nominee Anthony Ramos, In the Heights) to test a groundbreaking new tracking system.
There, she crosses paths with Tyler Owens (Glen 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.
Part of Tyler’s crew include Katy O'Brian as Dani, a mechanic, Sasha Lane as Lilly, a drone operator and Brandon Perea as Boone, a videographer.
Lee Isaac Chung (Minari) is directing Twisters from a screenplay by Mark L. Smith (The Revenant), with Frank Marshall and Pat Crowley (Jurassic World Dominion) attached to produce through the Kennedy/Marshall Company and Ashley Jay Sandberg as co-producer.
