As someone who grew up in Kansas I loved her midwestern accent! It was very subtle and perfect!

Just finished watching Twisters and immediately went to YouTube to see more of Daisy. She is stunningly beautiful. As a fan of British guitar bands, the fact she is English makes her even more attractive.

I love her accent in the film. I wish she would have been born in the USA. My new crush😊

there was a point in the movie where I thought, "is she british?" (i havent seen her in anything before so I didnt know) but for the most part it was very well done

She’s Anne Hathaway’s and Emmy Rossum’s love child!

there were several times in the movie where you could hear her british accent haha but that's alright I thought her acting was good!!

Saw the movie last Sunday. It was pretty good for a sequel. I thought it was a better sequel than Top Gun Maverick. It was a little predictable but when you thought you were going to see something similar they changed it. I’d watch it again. Can’t say that about Top Gun.

Normal People still affects me 3 years later.

She’s a really good actor but That accent work was quite bad. She slipped in and out of it. It was almost unfair to her that she had to use it.

[Woodkin]

Daddy bought her a nice acting career.

[igorschmidlapp]

No kidding that her character was a "composite" of the "Twister" leads, since she was supposed to be their daughter...

[abigailsnyder]

Fun movie but truthfully? Her accent is not good in it.

[DrKFlares]

Bush is an atrocious interviewer. “Hi….”

[blankaaliciab.decorrales]

I didn't watch it, I am poor and Glen movies are algebraics. Mommy likes that, she is not algebraic. Glen is a good man, in fact, she needs "a model with big bubbies and from Princeton". She doesn't know yet but she is close.

They couldn't cast an actual American?
