- 0:00Speaker 1: Hi, Daisy, Igga, Johns Gleam, Pale, Anthony Ramos, How are
- 0:03Speaker 1: you guys? Great now? Glenn, you worked with Bill Pexton
- 0:09Speaker 1: years ago and he was in the original Twister. All right,
- 0:12Speaker 1: you probably obviously didn't know you were going to do
- 0:14Speaker 1: this movie when you worked with them, But did it
- 0:16Speaker 1: come up in conversation? Oh?
- 0:17Speaker 2: Absolutely, I mean we shot that in Texas, and I
- 0:22Speaker 2: think one of the wild parts about talking ability. He
- 0:25Speaker 2: was such a smart guy, but every movie he did,
- 0:28Speaker 2: you know, he really he was such a curious individual,
- 0:31Speaker 2: but he really cared about the weather after Twisters like
- 0:34Speaker 2: that was something he was one of the great passions
- 0:36Speaker 2: of his life. And he was just a really exceptional guy.
- 0:40Speaker 1: And Daisy, I love that you are the brains of
- 0:42Speaker 1: the operation. You saved the day without giving too much away.
- 0:46Speaker 1: Have you carried that on as well? Like bil Dier,
- 0:48Speaker 1: Do you look at the sky now and you're life
- 0:49Speaker 1: and it's like Tornado with it today?
- 0:51Speaker 3: I definitely think so. I mean, I think the thing
- 0:54Speaker 3: of getting to film in Oklahoma, you know you can't help,
- 0:57Speaker 3: has suddenly become really like aware of cloud formation and
- 1:01Speaker 3: because you're experiencing extreme weather, and obviously I'm from London,
- 1:04Speaker 3: so it doesn't get that extreme for me. So it
- 1:07Speaker 3: was so cool to actually film there and experience like
- 1:09Speaker 3: we had actual storms, actual sort of tornadoes descend while
- 1:13Speaker 3: we're not onset what we were filming, but you know,
- 1:15Speaker 3: around the area, and it was just it was wild.
- 1:18Speaker 3: I went chasing for real with Glennon and Brandon actually
- 1:21Speaker 3: with a few of the storm chasers and it was
- 1:23Speaker 3: it was so cool to actually chase.
- 1:25Speaker 1: I was gonna ask, you guys, are storm Chasers real?
- 1:28Speaker 1: And yeah, I was going to say, did you go
- 1:30Speaker 1: on a ride along?
- 1:31Speaker 4: These are real people. There's a group of people on
- 1:34Speaker 4: earth that do this for a living. They you know,
- 1:37Speaker 4: and this is their life. Yeah, life's mission. And they
- 1:41Speaker 4: go out there and they put their lives on the
- 1:43Speaker 4: line to hopefully collect some kind of that, you know,
- 1:45Speaker 4: and sometimes most of the time they say you don't
- 1:47Speaker 4: see anything or you don't even see a tornado, but
- 1:51Speaker 4: that they go out there at time and time again
- 1:53Speaker 4: and hopes to catch something.
- 1:54Speaker 1: Now, Anthony, I read that Steven Spielberg, he's the ap
- 1:58Speaker 1: for this and he told you not to do the
- 2:01Speaker 1: southern accent. Is that a relief and what does that
- 2:04Speaker 1: mean to you?
- 2:06Speaker 4: One less thing to think about. You know, the best
- 2:10Speaker 4: part for me was was that growing up. I don't
- 2:12Speaker 4: think that many many of us in that neighborhood dreamt
- 2:17Speaker 4: of being meteorologists or even you know, actors, right, And
- 2:23Speaker 4: I'm just grateful that I have the opportunity to, you know,
- 2:26Speaker 4: to have to keep the way I speak, and you know,
- 2:29Speaker 4: to be on the big screen sounding like a Puerto
- 2:31Speaker 4: Rican kid from the projects in Brooklyn.
- 2:35Speaker 1: I know what that's like because kiways in New Zealand.
- 2:38Speaker 1: Anytime New Zealand's mentioned, or if we heard a Kiwi
- 2:42Speaker 1: accent on an interview, we're like, oh my god, it's us,
- 2:45Speaker 1: you know, the same same vibe. Can you guys, can
- 2:48Speaker 1: you could do a Kiwi accent?
- 2:51Speaker 3: I think I could if I worked today.
- 2:52Speaker 2: How do you say twisters in.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Kwi twisters tornado? That's pretty sim don't confuse us with
- 3:09Speaker 1: don't he's coming across a little bit ouzzy twisters. It's
- 3:15Speaker 1: really confronting when you guys try and selling me. It's
- 3:20Speaker 1: really bad.
- 3:22Speaker 2: Now that we're going to do all the rest of
- 3:24Speaker 2: our interviews today in action.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Please do, please do, do you guys reckon if you
- 3:30Speaker 1: were in a natural disaster now that you would be
- 3:32Speaker 1: able to handle yourselves, particularly if a twister was to occur.
- 3:38Speaker 3: I think, I think I know to what i'd actually
- 3:42Speaker 3: I actually was the first time I ever filmed in
- 3:44Speaker 3: the South. I was filming in Louisiana and the first
- 3:48Speaker 3: night I got there, there was a tornado warning on
- 3:50Speaker 3: my Like I woke up to a tornado warning I
- 3:52Speaker 3: like on the phone, and I was like, what do
- 3:55Speaker 3: I do? I didn't know what to do. I know
- 3:59Speaker 3: you have to go like inside, away from windows, preferably
- 4:03Speaker 3: obviously in a bunker if you can, or blow ground.
- 4:06Speaker 1: But yeah, so not in a bath.
- 4:08Speaker 2: Double bath was like light some candles try to stay calm, right.
- 4:16Speaker 1: So, out of the three of you, who is most
- 4:19Speaker 1: likely to run away crying in a disaster situation? Do
- 4:23Speaker 1: you think? Please say glean. I just really wanted to
- 4:27Speaker 1: be clean.
- 4:32Speaker 2: I'm not doing this key re accent all day.
- 4:37Speaker 3: Think away you you'd be like the air. I'm in
- 4:49Speaker 3: the bubble bath.

- 4:55Speaker 1: than the original. And yeah, it's lovely chatting to you
