The "Twister" premiere in 1996 brought out stars like Wesley Snipes, Woody Harrelson, and Keanu Reeves.
"Twister," starring Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton, topped the box office in 1996.
The movie proved the allure of CGI-fueled disaster movies, featuring iconic scenes like a flying cow.
Here are the best red carpet photos from the film's premieres.
When "Twister" came out in 1996, audiences couldn't get enough of Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton as storm-chasers trying to run from destructive tornadoes.
The movie topped the domestic box office in its first two weekends in theaters, proving audiences would flock to big-spectacle disaster movies that were fueled by computer-generated action (complete with a flying cow).
Close to 30 years after its release, there's now a legacy sequel with "Twisters," out July 19, starring Glen Powell, Daisy Edgar-Jones, and Anthony Ramos.
In celebration of audiences returning to storm hunting, here's a look back at the star-studded premieres the original "Twister" had in 1996.
Helen Hunt played storm-chaser Jo Harding in the movie.
At the time of the premiere, Hunt was dating actor Hank Azaria.
Bill Paxton played Bill Harding, a former storm-chaster turned weatherman who's the ex-husband of Helen Hunt's character.
Cary Elwes played rival storm chaser Jonas Miller.
Stars flocked to the premiere — including Kevin Bacon...
Wesley Snipes...
... and Keanu Reeves.
Van Halen wrote and performed the movie's song, "Humans Being."
Van Halen frontman Sammy Hagar also made an appearance at the premiere.
Rock royalty Mick Fleetwood and Stevie Nicks from Fleetwood Mac also showed up.
It wouldn't be a proper 1990s party without Steven Seagal.
Days after the red carpet premiere, Jane Fonda held her own screening of the movie as a benefit function.
At the time, Fonda was married to one of the richest men in the world, Ted Turner.
The event brought out the movie's stars and also... Woody Harrelson.
