Tom Cruise to return to skies for third Top Gun movie


Film is expected to reunite Pete ‘Maverick’ Mitchell with protege fighter pilots played by Miles Teller and Glen Powell

No director has yet been confirmed, but Puck suggest that Maverick’s Joseph Kosinski is in the frame, and will likely act as a producer on the project also. Featuring Cruise as navy pilot Pete “Maverick” Mitchell, now mentor for a new generation of fighter pilots including Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw (Teller) and Jake “Hangman” Seresin (Powell), Top Gun: Maverick was a belated sequel to the 1986 film Top Gun, and amassed more than $1.49bn in box office revenue worldwide to become Cruise’s best performing film. On Tuesday, Warner Bros announced they had signed a non-exclusive deal with Cruise to “jointly develop and produce original and franchise theatrical films”.
