Trailer for period action thriller Tornado from Slow West director John Maclean

April 8, 2025 by Amie Cranswick

Lionsgate has shared a trailer for Tornado, the upcoming period action thriller from writer-director John Maclean (Slow West).

Set 1790s Britain, the film follows Tornado (Kōki), a young woman who vows to seek vengeance against a notorious gang that ambushed her father’s puppet Samurai show, with the plan of stealing their ill-gotten gold.

Also featuring in the cast alongside Kōki are Tim Roth, Jack Lowden, and Takehiro Hira. Check out the trailer below…

 

Set in the rugged landscape of 1790’s Britain, Tornado (played by model-songwriter Kōki,) finds herself caught in a perilous situation when she and her father’s travelling puppet show crosses paths with a ruthless criminal gang led by Sugarman (PULP FICTION star Tim Roth) and his ambitious son Little Sugar (SLOW HORSES’ Jack Lowden). In an attempt to create a new life, Tornado seizes the opportunity to steal the gold from the gang’s most recent heist; what follows is a thrilling tale of adrenaline-fueled action as Tornado fights to escape a violent demise.

Tornado arrives in cinemas on June 13th.
