The 2024 film starring Glen Powell, Anthony Ramos and Daisy Edgar-Jones is a standalone sequel to the 1996 Twister film, which starred Helen Hunt, the late Bill Paxton and Starring Jamie Gertz.

Most of the songs heard in the film were written specifically for this purpose, but Twain and Breland’s songs fit right into the film perfectly.
“I had written my song with Shania and was looking for a great opportunity to release it, and it ended up being a perfect fit for the movie,” Breland told Billboard. “It wasn’t something we wrote specifically for the soundtrack; we were lucky that what they were looking for was something we already had.”
