Top Gun 2 Latest News: Tom Cruise would love to be Maverick once again and get back on those Jets to figure out a new Storyline
Top Gun 2 is still just being talked about. There is nothing concrete yet as to when, or if, there will be a Top Gun 2 full movie that will really be made at all. Those searching the web for a Top Gun 2 trailer, a Top Gun 2 preview or a Top Gun 2 Wiki will find there is none.
Obviously, there is no Top Gun 2 cast yet. However, Tom Cruise is willing to reprise his "Maverick" role if there will be a sequel to the critically acclaimed and commercially successful 1986 Top Gun original. In a talk a few months back with Access Hollywood, Cruise said, "Jerry [Bruckheimer] and I, we're working on it. If we can figure it out, it'll be a lot of fun. I'd like to get back in those jets if we could figure the story out."
For his part, Jerry Bruckheimer also want the Top Gun 2 movie to happen. In an interview with Digital Spy, the famed producer of such hits as Pirates of the Caribbean, National Treasure, and Bad Boys said, "It's been in the works for 35 years! We really want to make it, Tom is engaged and so is Paramount, so we hope we can bring it to an audience shortly." In another earlier interview with Huffington Post, Bruckheimer said, "Don [Simpson] and I tried to develop something, we didn't succeed. [Tom] Cruise took over, and he tried to develop something, and he didn't succeed. Now we're back at it."
Tony Scott, the director of the original Top Gun film, before his death, left Bruckheimer and Cruise with a storyline they can work on. It has to do with drones. Said Bruckheimer, "The concept is, basically, are the pilots obsolete because of drones. Cruise is going to show them that they're not obsolete. They're here to stay." However, at this point, neither the very busy Cruise, nor Paramount, nor a director has officially actually committed yet to do the Top Gun 2 movie.
