Top Gun: Maverick • The Next Reel

  • Resumen

  • “It’s not the plane, sir. It’s the pilot.”The Long Road to Top Gun: MaverickThe original Top Gun was a massive success in 1986, but it took over 30 years for a sequel to finally take flight. Development on Top Gun: Maverick began in 2010 when Paramount Pictures approached producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Tony Scott about a sequel. Unfortunately, the project was put on hold after Scott's death in 2012. The studio eventually moved forward with the sequel in 2017, with Joseph Kosinski taking the helm and Tom Cruise reprising his iconic role as Pete "Maverick" Mitchell.
