Movies TOP GUN 3 in the works!

[MDoza]

Let me guess, Miles Teller's character will have to go to some remote base for special jedi, i mean pilot training.

Conor co-starring with Jake's brokeback work in the cockpit... possible winner.

Money talks but Maverick was perfect and I fear further sequels will only tarnish the first 2.

Third movie is often where things start to really go south. Hoping for some Rocky 3 stuff and not Beverly Hills Cop 3.

Maverick was greatness it needs to end there. No idea where the story can go an Teller cannot be a lead he's not nearly good enough. Cruise character has reached limit. They would have to kill Maverick in 3 an noone wants that.

Tom Cruise flying a UAP, make it happen David Ellison

Let me guess, another sing along to Great Balls of Fire

I'll watch this and the last MI but I'm more interested in seeing him do other stuff at this point over more sequels. The movie that's going to be shot in Space is the most interesting project he's got coming up.

I would agree with those who have said that Maverick was darn near perfect. It was a gift to us children of the 80's, and I'm afraid that further sequels will only tarnish it. Maybe they can catch lightening in a bottle again, but I'm skeptical.

Maverick was perfect. I like Tom Cruise. I'd prefer him in more original stuff.

Noooo whyyyy.

They say lightning doesn't strike twice and somehow it did for this franchise. Leave it tf alone and let it die in greatness.

Maverick was a perfect movie and I really wish they weren’t doing this. That being said, same writer and director? I’ll be there OPENING FUCKING NIGHT!

I saw Maverick in IMAX, enjoyed it, but wasn't overly impressed by the story.

It overachieved by being a decent story in comparison to practically every sequel released supposedly 20-30+ years after the original, but that's because the others were cash-grabs.

With most big budget movies failing, and this being green-lit within 2 years after the sequel, when the second was green-lit 30+ years after the original.... this seems like it'll be a cash-grab, especially with Tom Cruise's recent Mission Impossible sequel failing.

You know what your guys' problem is.....

Paramount is hoping to refuel the Top Gun franchise for liftoff once more, for a third film in the storied franchise.

Top Gun: Maverick co-writer Ehren Kruger is penning a script for what would be a new installment, and sources say Maverick director Joe Kosinski would also return to direct. Puck first reported the news of Kruger’s involvement. The intent is to reunite Tom Cruise with his next-gen co-stars Miles Teller and Glen Powell.

The development comes days after Warner Bros. Discovery announced that Cruise had signed a deal to star in and produce movies for Warners, though that pact is nonexclusive. The actor’s recent films have largely been at Paramount, though he did not have a deal there. While some could view the Top Gun news as a tit for tat in the war for Cruise headlines, the reality is this sequel has quietly been in development since late fall.

Paramount could not be reached for comment.

Maverick was a massive overperformer at the box office in 2022, earning $1.5 billion globally and sparking Steven Spielberg to credit Cruise with saving the theatrical business, which had been beleagured by the coronavirus pandemic. The feature followed decades after Tony Scott’s 1986 Top Gun, which helped cement Cruise as a rising movie star.

Don’t expect to see the new Top Gun movie in the near term. Cruise is currently working on an eighth Mission: Impossible movie, which will keep him occupied until at least its release, currently set for May 2025. And it took a few years of development before Maverick became airborne. Still, this development further cements one thing that became apparent after this week: Cruise is still an in-demand star and studios will be battling for his time and attention for years to come.

The news follows Tom Cruise inking a headline-grabbing (though nonexclusive) deal with Warner Bros.

Part 2 was a whole lot of Meh. It was nowhere near Top Gun

 

[Adamant]

I'm in the vast minority who thinks Maverick was way overrated. Generic plot, mostly disposable characters and ridiculous set pieces. I liked the idea they'd floated before they landed on the foreign power hidden base one, that had dealt with Maverick coming back to Top Gun in opposition to a military drone program.

Good for everyone who enjoyed it, but I can't see the circumstance that would get me back for another go-round.

To be fair you could argue that the last film was such a big gap its essentially a new franchise with the same director so would really be more "film 2".

Still though I think just redoing the last film is likely to be disminishing returns, I think they'd need to mix it up a bit, perhaps have them using prop planes instead of jets? maybe some personal mission outside the US military, the lead characters fight a cartel in central america or something.

What about hottie Callsign Phoenix (Monica Barbaro)? Phoenix should have a three-way with Maverick and Penny.

We need a gratuitous full frontal nude Phoenix shower scene. Then suddenly she has to get out of the shower and not put any clothes on and immediately pilot a UAV to kick some ass while outnumbered and save Mav and Rooster.

 

[volodya]

They will some how make his like with ice to be admiral

They should get real creative and do away the fighter jets and replace them with super cool F-1 cars. Make it a sports movie about real sports IMO.

Just have the movie be two hours of Phoenix sitting on a sybian.

 

[-Magua-]

Taken out by John Rambo? I'm in.

Nah taken out by Ernest Borgnine & Jan Michael Vincent in Airwolf.

They did thst with brad pitt. They should make him nascar driver

I'd love to see Days of Thunder 2 more than this



Robert Duvall is still here for a cameo. After a successful Hall of Fame career, Cole is retired and a crew chief for a young struggling driver. Cole's rebellious anti-authoirty nature keeps him working on smaller, lower funded teams. His driver gets injured and without a good showing at Daytona they're going to lose the team. Cole set the record most Daytona 500 Wins in his career and nobody knows the track better than him. Reluctantly, he climbs back in the car for one more race.

Yeah that's kinda the plot of Days of Thunder in the firs place but who cares!

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Another Top Gun movie but no Iron Eagle... meh

 

[PBAC]

Maybe they can start making it endless and replace the actors all the time because everything has to be likened to James bond.

That's pretty close to the plot for Driven with Stallone but there is room for it to be executed better.

It’s kinda the plot of every sports based movie starring an actor over 25. There’s only so many stories you can tell in that narrative, it’s either a rise and fall or return to glory

That can be the spin off prequel and sequel.
