Disaster movies used to be everywhere. Back in the late 1900s, disaster films tackled everything from tsunamis and plane crashes to global pandemics. Over time, though, they lost some of their widespread global pull. As the world grew more digitally interconnected, real-life crises became international headlines in the 24-hour news cycle, making old-school Hollywood CGI destruction feel a bit too close to home. Today, traditional disaster films mostly occupy a smaller, niche corner of pop culture, occasionally inspiring high-stakes emergencies on network procedurals like 9-1-1. But a massive, big-budget disaster movie event? That has been a rare sight ever since the 2024 Twisters sequel starring Glen Powell.
