If the pervading memory of Jan de Bont’s 1996 block-fluster Twister is an image of bovine aeronautics, it’s hard to picture how its instantly less iconic 2024 sequel, from Minari director Lee Isaac Chung, will be remembered. Perhaps only in retrospectives examining Glen Powell’s sharp rise to megastardom. Two decades of graft lie behind the chiselled Texan’s supposed overnight success. Having made his debut in 2003’s third Spy Kids flick, Powell has successfully bit-parted his way through all from The Dark Knight Rises to Expendables 3. The winds changed with Top Gun: Maverick and Anyone But You but now they’re very much stormin’ high.
