Anthony Ramos is celebrating a massive box office performance…

Twisters, a sequel to the almost 30-year-old hit Twister, starring the 32-year-old Puerto Rican actor/singer, blew past expectations to gross $80.5 million in the third-best opening of the year at the box office.

Twisters was projected to rake in roughly $50 million at the box office in its opening weekend but topped that by more than 60%, putting it behind only Dune: Part Two and Inside Out 2 for the year’s biggest opening weekends.

The film, billed as a “stand-alone sequel” to its 1996 predecessor, was liked by 78% of critics and a whopping 92% of audiences on Rotten Tomatoes, earning praise as a “wonderfully mindless adventure” and “fun summer blockbuster.”

The impressive debut gives Twisters the largest opening weekend ever for a disaster movie in unadjusted terms, besting 2004’s The Day After Tomorrow ($68.4 million).

Twisters is helping the summer box office rebound from a lackluster start that threatened to pull down year-end box office projections beyond their already-diminished expectations, adding to a series of surprise summer successes that have so far included Bad Boys: Ride or Die and A Quiet Place: Day One.

In addition to Ramos, who portrays Javi in the film, the film also stars Glenn Powell and Daisy Edgar-Jones.
