Cuban was already a millionaire at the time and became a full-blown billionaire soon afterward. Still, he did later joke that Hoffman was “miscast” and that he was really “right for the role.” And Cuban did manage to land a few other acting roles around that time; he played a villain (literally named “villain”) in the 1995 action movie Lost at Sea and showed up in multiple episodes of Walker, Texas Ranger – plus, his tornado-based acting aspirations were eventually realized to some extent when he played The President of the United States in Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No! Sure it starred Bo Derek and Sugar Ray’s Mark McGrath, and not Helen Hunt or Bill Paxton, but it’s something.
Until the sequel gets made, at least we can still satiate all of our Twister needs by visiting the world’s saddest museum.
