Brandon Perea, fresh from his breakout role in Nope, takes on a formidable challenge in Twisters. Perea portrays Boone, a character reminiscent of Philip Seymour Hoffman’s fan-favorite Dusty from the original Twister. As part of a storm-chasing team led by Glen Powell and Helen Hunt, Perea’s character is central to the action-packed sequel directed by Lee Isaac Chung.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Perea expressed his apprehension about taking on a role so closely associated with Hoffman’s iconic performance. He shared his initial reaction to the script, noting the similarities between Boone and Hoffman’s character, and acknowledged the pressure of living up to such a beloved portrayal.
Twisters is now showing in cinemas, offering audiences a chance to experience intense storm-chasing action and Perea’s fresh take on a character inspired by a fan favorite. Get your tickets now!
