The lead actor revealed that the new version of "Twister" to be released next year is neither a sequel nor a remake

The American film "Twister", directed by Jan de Bont and starring Helen Hunt, Bill Paxton and Cary Elwes, was first released in 1996 and premiered on my country's CCTV-6 movie channel in 2006, becoming a classic memory for a generation.

In recent years, Universal Pictures also announced the filming of a new version of "Twister", with the script written by Mark Smith, the screenwriter of "The Revenant", and Spielberg as producer, starring "Girl in the Deep" actress Daisy Edgar-Jones and "Top Gun 2" actor Glen Powell.

Recently, Glen Powell revealed in an interview with Vogue magazine that the film is neither a sequel nor a remake of the original.

"We're not trying to repeat the story of the first movie," he said. "This is a completely original story. And it's a character that wasn't in the original movie, so it's not really a sequel. It's just a standalone modern story."

Considering that Universal Pictures has previously stated that the new version of "Twister" is not a simple sequel, but a new chapter, and that the filming phase of the film has ended, what Glen Powell said has basically confirmed the tone of the film.
