Peacock is thrilled to announce the return of one of its most popular films this weekend. “Twisters,” which originally premiered on Peacock in 2024 before moving to Prime Video, is now back on its original streaming platform. Fans can now enjoy this thrilling disaster film once again, hopefully for a longer period this time.
“Twisters” follows the story of Kate Carter (played by Daisy Edgar-Jones), a scientist who finds herself trapped in the middle of a tornado during an experiment gone wrong. Years later, Kate, along with her colleague Javi (portrayed by Anthony Ramos), are the sole survivors of that fateful incident. However, when Javi convinces Kate to join him in storm chasing once again, they find themselves facing the biggest storm they’ve ever encountered. Along the way, they meet Tyler Owens (played by Glen Powell), a storm-chasing influencer whom Kate initially dislikes but eventually learns to work with to save lives.
In addition to “Twisters,” Peacock offers another gripping disaster film for viewers to enjoy. “The Perfect Storm,” based on a true story, follows the crew of the fishing ship Andrea Gail as they navigate treacherous waters during a deadly storm. Led by Captain Frank William “Billy” Tyne Jr. (portrayed by George Clooney), the crew must battle the elements in a fight for survival. The film is a harrowing tale of courage and resilience in the face of nature’s fury.
For those looking for a lighter option, “Dog Days” provides a heartwarming romantic comedy experience. The film weaves together multiple love stories, all centered around the bond between humans and their beloved canine companions. From TV hosts Elizabeth (played by Nina Dobrev) and Jimmy (portrayed by Tone Bell) to shelter owner Garrett (portrayed by Jon Bass) and his romantic interests, the film explores the various forms of love and connection that dogs can inspire.
Whether you’re in the mood for high-stakes drama, heart-pounding action, or heartwarming romance, Peacock has something for everyone this weekend. Don’t miss out on the chance to binge-watch these top picks and immerse yourself in a world of thrilling entertainment.
