The Super Sneaky Trick Twisters Used To Make Anthony Ramos Look Really Good At Science



Anthony Ramos, Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar-Jones make up the cast of Twisters, whose characters face the challenge of reducing the intensity of tornadoes. After giving convincing performances playing a group of storm chasers who knew their stuff about cyclones, you’d think all of the film’s actors had science backgrounds. Well, Ramos revealed a super sneaky trick that the summer disaster flick used to make him look really good at science.

It must be a lot of hard work to be able to portray a person of science without a background in the field. When you think about characters from the best sci-fi movies of all time and movies based on true scientific stories, like Doc Brown, Dr. Grant, Dr. Arroway and J. Robert Oppenheimer, stars have to remember all of these scientific terms from their scripts and get a good grasp of the material to be in character. Anthony Ramos’ super clever trick done in Twisters was told on BBC Radio 1 that really made him look like he knew his science:

There was something really cool with the special effects on that one, where the team they hired had this magnet underneath the glass –I probably shouldn’t be giving this away but I am — to make sure that when I stirred the water that it would [spin] and stay long enough for them to get a close up on it where it would look like a tornado inside.
