Twisters director Lee Isaac Chung joins Popcorn Podcast to talk helming a long-awaited sequel to 1996 cult classic disaster film Twister, starring Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton. Chung hopes to blow audiences away with his take on the action-packed blockbuster, this time featuring Daisy Edgar-Jones and Glenn Powell as tornado chasers in pursuit of a monster storm. After bringing us the deeply personal Oscar-nominated Minari, Chung shares why independent filmmakers are perfect for big-budget popcorn films and how he stays true to the original Twister while upping the ante for fans and new audiences alike.
