fivethej Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Awesome. I'd love to see Gene Hackman cast in the film. Kelly McGillis is way too old to reprise her role or make a cameo. She's 59. Hopefully, they touch on what happened between her and Maverick following 1st film. https://www.theguardian.com/film/2017/may/24/top-gun-2-is-definitely-happening-says-tom-cruise Quote In January 2016, producer Jerry Bruckheimer tweeted a photo of himself with Cruise, saying: “Just got back from a weekend in New Orleans to see my old friend Tom Cruise and discuss a little Top Gun 2.” “We’re trying to figure it out,” Cruise clarified in a subsequent appearance on the Graham Norton Show. The sequel was hinted at again in April this year during an “Ask me anything” on Reddit, when Val Kilmer – who starred in the original film with Cruise and Kelly McGillis – was asked by a user whether he would be doing Top Gun 2. “Hell yes,” he replied, “and what a hoot it will be.” Kilmer was also asked if the on-screen rivalry between his character Iceman and Cruise’s character Maverick was present off-screen as well. “[Cruise] was a sweetheart,” Kilmer replied. “We were all quite rowdy me and all the real flyboys and the actors, so I actually felt a little sorry for him cause we all had time to play and date the cute extras and zoom around San Diego in muscle cars, but Tom was always in some scene and never got to play with us.” Top Gun, an action and romance film about a squad of fighter pilots, grossed $356m after its 1986 release, and has since become something of a cult classic.

Lancaster Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Maybe they'll have it like that unoriginal Creed movie and have the son of Goose making it to Top Gun.... then it'll be like those Rocky movies, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SabreFan1 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 The US Navy shut down the Top Gun (SFTI) program in the mid 90's. It was merged with NSAWC. The merged programs became known as NAWDC. They'll have to come up with a way in the story around that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabreFan1 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Too bad they shut down JustinTV 2 or 3 years ago or I'd hop onto my old channel and have a CDC movie night and broadcast Top Gun. I just started watching it now. This thread gave me the urge to see it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
