In the meantime, Powell simply appears joyful to be in movies that get theatrical releases. The actor thanked “Twisters” followers for serving to the function turn into a field workplace hit.
“When I was a kid, during the summer I begged my parents to stay in the movie theater all day. Not just cause it had the best air conditioning in Texas, but because summer movies were designed to give you your money’s worth,” Powell wrote. “And I always got to share that cinematic experience with a theater full of people who were on the same ride with me and left with the same rush. So seeing the universal response to ‘Twisters’ has really been a dream come true.”
