While Noah will bring a great flood to theaters this weekend, later in the summer we’ll be getting a modern-day disaster movie with Into the Storm. Twister fans should take notice, as the film tracks tornados of epic proportions touching down on a town. We’ve now got the first trailer for the film today, which finds James Cameron protege and Final Destination 5 director Steven Quale at the helm.
Judging from this first look, it seems as though Quale is certainly making use of his horror chops, as we see a few terrifying set-ups, along with a line that should be familiar to anyone that saw one of WB’s biggest releases last year. Check out the trailer, poster, synopsis, and new stills below for the film starring Richard Armitage, Sarah Wayne Callies, Matt Walsh, Alycia Debnam-Carey, Arlen Escarpeta, Max Deacon, Nathan Kress, Jeremy Sumpter, Kyle Davis, Jon Reep, and Scott Lawrence.
In the span of a single day, the town of Silverton is ravaged by an unprecedented onslaught of tornadoes. The entire town is at the mercy of the erratic and deadly cyclones, even as storm trackers predict the worst is yet to come. Most people seek shelter, while others run towards the vortex, testing how far a storm chaser will go for that once-in-a-lifetime shot.
Told through the eyes and lenses of professional storm chasers, thrill-seeking amateurs, and courageous townspeople, “Into the Storm” throws you directly into the eye of the storm to experience Mother Nature at her most extreme.
Into the Storm lands on August 8th.
