Star of upcoming 'Twister' sequel captures lightning during storms in OKC
As severe weather, including hail and tornadoes, hit Oklahoma Thursday night, a star of an upcoming follow-up to an iconic storm chasing movie shared her own footage of the weather event.
In a post to her Instagram stories, Daisy Edgar-Jones filmed a brief clip from a moving vehicle, showing dark clouds and streaks of lightning filling up the sky. The video appeared to have been filmed near I-40 westbound at I-44 in Oklahoma City.
Edgar-Jones, a 25-year-old Golden Globe nominated actress for her performance in the crime miniseries "Under the Banner of Heaven," is set to appear "Twisters," the sequel to the 1996 classic "Twister." She will appear alongside Glen Powell, who appeared in another sequel last year: "Top Gun: Maverick."
