Glen Powell revealed the filming of action sequences in his upcoming thriller, Twisters. The actor stated that he performed one of the greatest action sequences of all time for the movie. Powell also shared that he experienced the coldest night when the scene required rain machines.

Since delivering a major hit with Anyone But You, Powell has got a bag full of projects, with Hit Man and Chad Powers in line. The actor is also in talks with various other production houses for movies and TV series in the coming months. 

What did Glen Powell say about filming the action sequence for Twisters?

While sitting for an interview with Fandango’s Big Ticket, Powell stated that he had to be dragged across the pool by wire in one of the scenes of the film. The actor said it was the most strength he had ever used. 

The Top Gun: Maverick actor revealed, “We shot that in December with a rain machine. One of the coldest nights I’ve ever experienced, getting dragged across a pool by a wire. I think it was the most physical thing that I’ve ever done.”

Agreeing with Powell, his co-star, Daisy Edgar Jones, claimed that the actor had to perform as if he had been sucked into a tornado. Adding further, the Set It Up star said, “It can’t be tender. Tornadoes aren’t tender. You have to put your body on the line in order to sell that experience.”
