Top Gun: Maverick is the long-awaited follow-up we thought we’d never see, to 1986’s Top Gun, where Maverick started off, played by Tom Cruise as he was really making a name for himself, and he’s never let that slip since.
As for the plot? That’s still under wraps. It’s a shame original director Tony Scott has left us, but we do have the return of Val Kilmer as Iceman, and I hope this signals a return for Kilmer to the A-list as he fell from the top in the ’90s, even though he was also brilliant in The Doors.
And for this trailer? It really does capture the original Top Gun feel, so I am very much looking forward to it. To a degree it… ‘takes my breath away’ 😉
Director: Joseph Kosinski
Screeplay: Peter Craig, Justin Marks, Christopher McQuarrie, Eric Warren Singer
Characters: Jim Cash, Jack Epps Jr
Also stars: Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, Miles Teller, Ed Harris, Glen Powell
Top Gun: Maverick is released in the UK on July 17th 2020, so we’ve got a whole year to wait… and this first trailer comes just over a year since the initial announcement, which made us think it was coming THIS summer, but no, we’re still playing that waiting game.

June 2nd 2018:
Top Gun 2, aka Top Gun: Maverick, will arrive, if sources are correct and if anyone cares, in July 2019, so 33 years after the first one. Don’t hurry, Tom, eh?
Why are we talking about it now? Because Tom Cruise has released a picture with the hastag #Day1, making it look like filming has just begun.
It also says “Feel the Need” because of its catchphrase, “I feel the need… the need for speed!”
So, all standard stuff so far, and the director will apparently be Joseph Kosinski, who hasn’t made too many films, but gave us 2010’s lacklustre TRON Legacy, and the not-bad Cruise vehicle Oblivion, released in 2013.
Top Gun 2, aka Top Gun: Maverick, is expected July 12th 2019.
Writers: Peter Craig, Justin Marks, Eric Warren Singer
Producers: Jerry Bruckheimer, David Ellison
