Nearly 30 years after the 1996 disaster movie Twister, Universal is returning to the tornado-plagued plains of Oklahoma for a standalone sequel. IGN’s Twisters review called the follow-up “less visually appealing than its predecessor, but more emotionally engaging, resulting in a worthwhile summer blockbuster.”

Kate and Tyler, rival storm chasers with distinct styles, race to survive a tornado season like no other.
While Twisters spent the past four months on Peacock, the movie is now streaming exclusively on Prime Video. The move doesn’t come as a surprise: Universal’s streaming licenses typically have the distributor’s live-action movies on Peacock for four months before moving to Prime Video for the next 10. Prime Video subscriptions start at $8.99 and are included in Amazon Prime memberships, which offer a 30-day free trial.
If you’re not interested in another streaming subscription, Twisters is also available to rent or buy digitally from premium video on demand (PVOD) services.

What Is Twisters About?
Twisters is a standalone sequel to 1996’s Twister. Like its predecessor, Twisters follows a group of storm chasers in Oklahoma. Here’s the official synopsis from Universal:
Daisy Edgar-Jones stars as Kate Carter, a former storm chaser haunted by a devastating encounter with a tornado during her college years who now studies storm patterns on screens safely in New York City. She is lured back to the open plains by her friend, Javi to test a groundbreaking new tracking system. There, she crosses paths with Tyler Owens, the charming and reckless social-media superstar who thrives on posting his storm-chasing adventures with his raucous crew, the more dangerous the better.
As storm season intensifies, terrifying phenomena never seen before are unleashed, and Kate, Tyler, Javi and their crews find themselves squarely in the paths of multiple storm systems converging over central Oklahoma in the fight of their lives.
