The original Twister, which starred Helen Hunt, Bill Paxton, Cary Elwes and Philip Seymour Hoffman as storm-chasing scientists attempting to control the most powerful tornado in decades, was a massive hit, grossing nearly $500 million worldwide. It was the second-highest-grossing film of 1996 and was nominated for two Academy Awards.

At the international box office, Universal and Illumination’s sequel “Despicable Me” grossed $52 million in 79 markets.
