Chung is known for directing the critically acclaimed Minari, which received several Oscar nominations, while Smith was one of the co-writers for The Revenant; the film that finally earned Leonardo DiCaprio his first Oscar. For you wee lads, who were not around when the original Twister spun into theaters, the movie earned close to $500 million at the box office and was applauded for its special effects and an all-star cast.
