Twisters’ ending confirms Kate’s formula for diffusing a tornado is a success. Nearly 30 years after the original Twister released in theaters, the new sequel, directed by Lee Isaac Chung from a screenplay by Mark L. Smith, brings audiences back to Oklahoma, this time during a twister outbreak that has gotten more deadly and devastating. Twisters’ reviews have been mostly positive, and the Twister sequel’s cast is a star-studded one. The film’s ending sees an Oklahoma town nearly devastated by a powerful tornado.
