Tom Cruise recently stole the spotlight at the European premiere of “Twisters,” the highly anticipated sequel to the 1996 blockbuster “Twister.” Directed by Lee Isaac Chung, this disaster film is set to storm into theaters on July 17, 2024, with predictions suggesting it could rake in between $40 to $45 million during its opening weekend.
The star-studded cast, including Anthony Ramos and Daisy Edgar-Jones, promises a thrilling experience as they chase tornadoes across the big screen. However, it was Tom Cruise’s infectious enthusiasm that grabbed headlines. At the Cineworld Leicester Square in London and later in Los Angeles, Cruise couldn’t contain his excitement while watching his “Top Gun: Maverick” co-star, Glen Powell, in action.
According to Anthony Ramos, who plays Javi in the film, Cruise was visibly thrilled throughout the screening. “He keeps hitting me because he’s excited about different moments, and he’s laughing,” Ramos shared. “He wasn’t afraid to express himself. I was super grateful about that.”
“Twisters” aims to replicate the success of its predecessor, which earned nearly half a billion dollars worldwide. With a strong cast and intense special effects, the sequel is poised to captivate audiences once again with its adrenaline-pumping storyline and stunning visuals.
As anticipation builds for its release, fans of disaster epics and Tom Cruise alike can look forward to experiencing the thrill firsthand when “Twisters” hits theaters this summer. For a sneak peek, check out the trailer below and mark your calendars for July 17, 2024.
