Twisters spun into theaters in July and officially made its debut on digital platforms like Prime Video and Apple TV+ ahead of the film’s anticipated release on Peacock. Read on to learn how to watch Twisters at home for your next movie night.
Directed by Lee Issac Chung, Twisters (2024) serves as both a sequel and standalone story to Jan de Bont’s 1996 classic. In the film, Daisy Edgar-Jones stars as Kate Cooper, a retired tornado chaser who joins forces with her former college friend Javi (Anthony Ramos). Glen Powell appears as Tyler Owens, a famous social media storm chaser known as the “Tornado Wrangler.”
Twisters, which premiered on July 19, has been a box office hit, ranking among the top-grossing films of 2024. The movie has generated $310 million globally, with $222 million from domestic sales. Despite its success, the sequel has not yet surpassed the original Twister’s worldwide gross of approximately $495.7 million, according to Box Office Mojo.
One key factor behind Twisters’ strong theater performance was its success in the 4DX format. The film set a new opening weekend box office record for 4DX, earning $2.1 million—30% higher than the previous record holder, Super Mario Bros. Movie.
Overall, the tornado thriller has earned positive reviews from critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, the Powell-lead sequel boasts a solid 75% critics score and an impressive 91% audience score.

In comparison, Universal Pictures’ The Fall Guy will make its Peacock debut on August 30, which is 119 days (more than three months) after it was release in theaters on May 3, 2024. The 2023 film The Exorcist: Believer landed on Peacock 56 days (just under two months) after its theatrical premiere. Last year’s Fast X, which had a stronger box office performance than the former, took 115 days to arrive on Peacock, or a little over three months.
