Twisters
Summary
DespiteTwistersbeing a sequel toTwister , no character from the 1996 original returned , although these 10 could still come back inTwisters 2.Twistersis the 2024 follow - up to the original 1996 bang , and while they do take situation in the same violent storm - chasing universe , the legacy subsequence focalise on an all - new cast of characters that has seemingly no connexion to the originalTwistergang . Twistersis full ofEaster eggs and address to the originalTwister , and since the film is n’t shy about its connections to the original , the nextTwisterscould last bring back these iconic dealership characters .
The marketing forTwistersheavily focused on the flick ’s all - newfangled character , with it intelligibly attempting to make icons out of stamp members likeDaisy Edgar - Jones ' Kate Carter , Glen Powell ’s Tyler Owens , Anthony Ramos ' Javi , and more . However , many rooter of the 1996 original were expecting some of theTwistercast member to have surprise role inTwisters , something that did n’t terminate up happening . While major actor fromTwisterlike Bill Paxton and Philip Seymour Hoffman have sadly passed away , these 10 character could well still be added to the nextTwisterssequel .
After the booming winner of Twisters , a precedent has been adjust for more overlooked disaster movies to get the sequel & reboots they deserve .
10Jo Harding
Helen Hunt
The most obvious character to convey back inTwisters2is Helen Hunt ’s Jo Harding . Alongside Bill Paxton ’s Bill Harding , Jo Harding is the protagonist of the originalTwister , with her being the drawing card of the ragtag group of storm chaser after her ex - husband departed from the team . Jo Harding is the mind behind the Dorothy experiment that returns inTwisters , mean that her presence can still be feel in the moving-picture show despite her character not return .
Although Cate and her original chemical group of storm - chaser are shown using one of the Dorothy experiments inTwisters , it is never explain how they catch Jo Harding ’s work . This could perfectly be explained inTwisters 2by bringing Jo Harding back , revealing that she has some sort of connection to theTwisterscharacters . Now that Cate has fully returned to the world of tempest dog , it would make sense for her to look for out the help of a wise man like Jo Harding .
Interestingly , theoriginal architectural plan forTwister 2were go to include Helen Hunt ’s Jo Harding , meaning that the dealership clear was n’t done with her after the first moving-picture show . However , this film would have seen Jo Harding civilize up a new group of chasers only for her to be killed off in the opening moments . Twisters 2could bring back this design , set aside for a tremendously aroused pass of the woolly mullein from Jo to Cate and Tyler .

Jami Gertz
Dr. Melissa Reeves is an interesting character in the world ofTwister , as , despite her importance to the first movie , she is rarely discussed as much as the Hardings . In the 1996 original , Jami Gertz ' Dr. Melissa Reeves is the fiancée of Bill Harding , with her move around with Bill so as to get Jo to sign the divorcement papers .

Alan Ruck

Since appearing inTwister , theFerris Bueller ’s Day Offstar has run on to make an even bigger name for himself by playing the role of Connor Roy on the hit HBO showSuccession .
Due to Alan Ruck ’s recent successes , it would make perfect sense for him to come back inTwisters 2 . Not only would this add another big name to the celluloid , but it would also be a realistic connection , as it would make sense that one of the original storm - chaser would still be around a few decades after the events of the 1996 movie .
7Tim “Beltzer” Lewis
Todd Field
Another theatrical role who could return inTwisters 2is Tim " Beltzer " Lewis , played by Todd Field . Beltzer is one of the members of Jo Harding ’s storm - chasing bunch , with him helping out by push a blue 1985 Chevrolet Chevy Van .
Much like Alan Ruck , Todd Field ’s calling has only grow more impressive since the release of the originalTwister . However , instead of this being due to his acting , it is actually because Todd Field has become a prominent director , with him being the filmmaker behind critically - acclaim motion picture like 2022’sTár . However , it is still entirely possible that Field could take back to the world of acting inTwisters 2 , reprize his role as Beltzer .
6Brian Laurence
Jeremy Davies
Brian Laurence is play by Jeremy Davies in the originalTwister , and the character could alsoreturn in a potentialTwisters 2 . Laurence is another appendage of Jo Harding ’s tempest - chasing team , with him speciate in chase after the statistics of each crack . Laurence can often be listen discussing the idle words speeds or the classification of each storm , create him a central member of the team .
Much like Laurence , Twistersprotagonist Kate Carter is more into the statistics and scientific discipline behind tornadoesrather than the thrill of the chase . Because of this , she could deal a connection with Laurence if he is to return inTwisters 2 , setting up an interesting possible storyline .
5Allan Sanders
Sean Whalen
Allan Sanders is anotherTwistercharacter who could potentially return inTwisters 2 , with the character being played by Sean Whalen . Although Sanders is n’t give a bunch of focus in the originalTwister , the character is often seen hanging out with Rabbit . Thus , if Alan Ruck return inTwisters 2 , it would only make sense for Sanders to repay as well , with it being possible that the two continue to mould together after the event of the original film .
Allan Sanders has preserve pretend in the year since appearing inTwister , with him working on labor likeAmerican PickleandSuperstore . Because of this , it is likely thatTwisters 2wouldn’t have a trouble get the actor to return , wreak back another one of the original movie ’s role .
4Jason “Preacher” Rowe
Scott Thomson
Jason " Preacher " Rowe is another graphic symbol from the originalTwister , with him being played by actor Scott Thomson . As a member of Jo Harding ’s tempest - chasing squad , Preacher can be see driving one of the various vehicles while also performing a variety of other tasks .
Although actor Scott Thomson has n’t been acting as much in recent age as some of his otherTwisterco - principal , it would still be overnice to see him reprise his function in a subsequence toTwisters . Getting back as much of the work party as potential would be a play surprisal for a potential follow - up , and the moving picture should n’t skip over Preacher just because he was n’t one of the main fiber inTwister .
Glen Powell is a wide - recognize role player after films like Twisters and Top Gun : Maverick , meaning he could bring aid to other bequest sequel .
3Joey

Joey is another one of the tech - concenter character on the team , meaning that he could be seen using some of the more advanced storm - chasing equipment that has been originate since the original film if hereturns inTwisters 2 .
Twisterwas one of the earliest film office in Joey Slotnick ’s vocation , with him appearing in a lot of more late movie like 2019’sThe Goldfinch , 2023’sPlane , and 2024’sDrive Away Dolls . Thus , it is probable that he would return inTwisters 2if devote the chance .
2Willie
Gregory Sporleder
Willie , encounter by Gregory Sporleder , would be another interesting character thatTwisters 2could bring back from the original film , although for a dissimilar reason . InTwister , Willie was a phallus of the squad of storm - chasing antagonists . unluckily , the moving-picture show ’s chief antagonist , Cary Elwes ' Jonas Miller , died at the remainder of the first film , mean that he ca n’t fare back for a continuation .
However , bringing Willie back would be a direction forTwisters 2to reflect on the dangers of storm chasing . Despite Willie being one of the antagonist , he can bind with Kate over the fact that they both lost their teams in the yesteryear , adding a unique twist to this minor baddie .
1Aunt Meg
Lois Smith

Despite being 93 geezerhood honest-to-goodness , Lois Smith is still behave , with her having seem in late movies likeThe French Dispatchas well as still acting in theatre . Because of this , Aunt Meg could come back in a potentialTwisterssequel , with Jo Harding and Kate ’s new squad of storm - chasers repeating this repast vista from the original movie .
