secret out: the third top gun film on radar

Jan 12, 2024 6:57 PM

Exciting news for Top Gun fans – a third installment of the franchise is reportedly in development. Despite Tom Cruise's recent partnership with Warner Bros. to produce content, Paramount Pictures is eager to continue building upon the success of Top Gun: Maverick. Screenwriter Ehren Kruger is poised to return for script duties, while Paramount hopes to secure director Joseph Kosinski and co-stars Miles Teller and Glen Powell. Top Gun: Maverick's outstanding performance, earning $1.49 billion globally, makes a sequel a promising venture. The proposed production is significant as it reinforces the non-exclusive nature of Cruise's deal with Warner Bros., allowing him to collaborate with other studios such as Paramount on future projects.

Is Top Gun 3 officially confirmed and when is it expected to release?

While reports from Puck News, THR, and Variety indicate that Top Gun 3 is in development, there is no official confirmation or release date announced as of now.

Top Gun is a seminal film in the action, fighter pilot genre, originally released in 1986 and starring Tom Cruise as the charismatic pilot, Maverick. The film was revered for its exhilarating flight sequences, memorable characters, and quotable dialogue, becoming a cultural touchstone of the '80s. It took over 30 years for a sequel to come to fruition, with Top Gun: Maverick finally taking flight in 2022. The long-awaited follow-up not only brought back Tom Cruise to the iconic role but also introduced new characters, played by actors such as Miles Teller and Glen Powell. The success of Top Gun: Maverick has paved the way for further expansion of the Top Gun franchise.

Top Gun 3's potential to soar hinges on capturing Maverick's high-flying legacy, energizing fans both old and new. Paramount aiming to reunite the Maverick squad is a smart play to keep the sequel's trajectory as sky-high as its predecessor's box office success.

Gotta say, the prospect of diving back into the danger zone with a third Top Gun flick revs my engine – especially if they can snag the original crew. Maverick's recent sky-high success definitely screams sequel, so here's hoping they deliver another adrenaline-fueled ride quicker than the last 36-year flyby

Totally stoked to hear that the high-flying world of Top Gun might not be done with us yet—talk about keeping up the need for speed If Maverick and his crew return to the skies, they'd better bring that same seamless blend of nostalgia and adrenaline that made Top Gun: Maverick such a thrill ride. 🛩️🎬
