Bill Paxton as Bill hanging onto the side of a truck in Twister
The Big Picture Twisters, the standalone sequel to the 1996 critically acclaimed disaster film, Twister has plans to honor the late Bill Paxton in a very thoughtful way that will surprise even fans. Despite not featuring any actors from the original, the film will feature Bill’s son, James Paxton, who recently opened up about the feat to Entertainment Weekly, hinting at just how much it means to him.
Fans will recall that Bill portrayed meteorologist Jo Harding’s estranged husband Bill Harding in the original Twister movie, which also starred Helen Hunt, Jami Gertz and Cary Elwes as part of an ensemble cast. Despite not having a lead role like Bill’s, James felt pretty emotional about being included in something related to his father, as he admitted:
Starring In 'Twisters' Was The "Right Thing" For James Paxton With Twisters, which will make its way to theaters in a few days, James admittedly felt like a representative of his father on set and valued his time there, where he got to encounter "a lot of amazing people." Elaborating more on his involvement in the highly anticipated sequel, he said:
Twisters starring Glen Powell, Anthony Ramos and Daisy Edgar-Jones as lead stars will be released in theaters on July 19. Check out the official trailer above.
