We had earlier reported that Twisters, a sequel to the 1995 film Twister is in the works with Daisy Edgar-Jones, Glen Powell, Anthony Ramos, Brandon Perea, and Daryl McCormack, among others, as part of the cast. Recently, Powell said that the upcoming spin-off of the hit film is a completely original story. Backed by Warner Bros Pictures, Frank Marshall, and Pat Crowley, Twisters is directed by Lee Isaac Chung.

In a recent interview, Powell spoke about wrapping up filming for the Twisters sequel, while also assuring that this spin-off is not a reboot. ''It’s definitely not a reboot. We’re not trying to recreate the story from the first one. It’s a completely original story. There are no characters from the original movie back, so it’s not really a continuation."
