Brisket ’s daddy recognizes the fan ’s frustration .
Glen Powellrevealed how he andDaisy Edgar-Jonesfeel about the backlash over the deletedTwisterskiss.
If you didn’t know, Glen and Daisy filmed a hot, steamy kiss scene for the end of their summer blockbuster,Twisters,a sequel to the 1996 movieTwister.
Twistersrevisited all the high-octane storm-chasing scenes and sexual tension between tornado chasers as the first film, except forone key difference.
At the end of the 1996 filmTwister,Jo (Helen Hunt) and Bill (Bill Paxton) end the movie with a huge kiss, which we saw on the big screen.
However, Kate Carter (Daisy) and Tyler Owens (Glen) didn’t kiss, peck, or even rub their noses together.
Then a behind-the-scenes video went viral, showing that Daisy and Glen actually filmed a kiss scene, and movie fans were pretty annoyed.

just place upright up at the destruction of my Twisters screening and announced to everyone that they cut out the glen and daisy buss . an tempestuous mob has formed and we are seizing the AMC
Talking toCollider, Daisy suggested it was a note fromSteven Spielberg. “I think it stops the film feeling too clichéd, actually. I think there’s something really wonderful about it feeling like there’s a continuation. This isn’t the end of their story. They’re united by their shared passion for something.”
The film’s director, Lee Isaac Chung (who also directedMinariin 2020), echoed that sentiment in an interview withEntertainment Weekly. “I think it’s a better ending. And I think that people who want a kiss within it, they can probably assume that these guys will kiss someday. And maybe we can give them privacy for that. In a way, this ending is a means to make sure that we really wrap things up with it in a celebratory, good way.”
But, despite their best efforts to quell the storm of theTwistersfandom with a reasonable explanation, people were still perturbed the scene was removed.

In a recent interview withScreen Rant, Glen hilariously responded to the backlash. “I’m taking it very personally,” Glen said jokingly.
“I’m sure you’ve seen the behind-the-scenes, where I did get to kiss Daisy Edgar-Jones, which really is all that counts,” he said, laughing. “We had a great time, and I’m really proud of the movie.”
To the whirlwind of upset fans, Glen said the reactions “show that people care, which is really great.”
“I just love how excited people have gotten about that movie, and Daisy and I send each other the TikToks and the gifs. There’s so much funny stuff coming out of it. It’s fun. That’s whatsummer moviesare about. It creates this conversation and cultural moment, and people dress up and do the thing. It’s been really awesome,” he gushed, adding, “So, kiss or no kiss, everybody’s a winner.”
Sure, Glen’s answer is great (and funny). Perhaps he knows something about dealing with the chaotic fan-driven conversations surrounding his films. (See:Anyone But Youdrama)
But, honestly, there is still time to give us thirsty fans an extended version/director’s cut that includes the hot, steamy kiss that everyone worked so hard to film.
