Bill Paxton as Bill Harding in Twister.
A Twister sequel could have come much sooner than Twisters in 2024 if it were up to Bill Paxton, but, sadly, the actor's idea for a second movie never actualized. The 1996 disaster film, directed by Jan de Bont and written by Michael Crichton and Anne-Marie Martin, starred Paxton as Bill Harding, one of the two leads. Beside him in the Twister cast was Helen Hunt, who played Jo.
Bill Paxton Pitched An R-Rated Twister Sequel Inspired By The 1925 Tri-State Tornado The Proposed Twister Sequel Would Have Been In 3D Close During an interview with Bullz-Eye in January 2010, Bill Paxton shared his idea for a Twister sequel that he was working on. Fourteen years after the premiere of the disaster film, a second movie was seemingly a very real possibility, and it was planned to be in 3D.
Ultimately, 695 people died during the Tri-State tornado on March 18, 1925. As a result, it was the deadliest tornado in United States history and the second deadliest in the world. Given its impact and place in history, it's not surprising that Paxton would want to use the infamous tornado as inspiration for Twister 2.
1 Just a couple of years after The Terminator, Paxton and Cameron reunited on the set of Aliens. Cameron directed and wrote the 1986 Alien sequel, while Paxton starred as Hudson, a performance that earned him a Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actor. Afterward, Paxton and Cameron collaborated on two more movies — True Lies and Titanic .
