During Paramount Pictures‘ Terminator: Dark Fate panel at San Diego Comic-Con, Tom Cruise unveiled the new trailer for the highly-anticipated Top Gun: Maverick. Set 34 years after the original film, this sequel sees Cruise reprising his role as Pete “Maverick” Mitchell.
Now a flight instructor, Maverick finds himself teaching his late partner’s son, Nick “Goose” Bradshaw, who intends to follow his father in his footsteps. Val Kilmer, who played Iceman, Goose’s father, will somehow also be involved with the film. Although Tom Cruise has become known for performing his most dangerous stunts, he was not able to fly the F/A 18 Hornets featured in the film due to government law. However, there are several authentic cockpit shots and stunning flight visuals that make up for it.
New stars Jon Hamm, Jennifer Connelly, Miles Teller and Ed Harris will also be featured in the film.
Check out the trailer for Top Gun: Maverick, set to debut sometime in 2020.
