Hoult, Powell, Teller Up For “Top Gun 2”
Nicholas Hoult, Glen Powell and Miles Teller have all emerged as the frontrunners for a key role in the “Top Gun” sequel at Paramount Pictures.
Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer reprise their roles in the follow-up to the iconic 1980s film with the pair once again playing Maverick and Iceman respectively, though the latter is expected to only make a short appearance.
The young actors though are up for the role of the son of Maverick’s former wingman and best pal Goose (Anthony Edwards) and his wife (Meg Ryan). Goose served as the emotional heart of the first film with the character killed in an accident for which Maverick blames himself.
The group beat out the likes of Dylan O’Brien and Austin Butler who were amongst several others up for the role. The final round of testing reportedly took place earlier this week in Florida.
“Oblivion” helmer Joseph Kosinski is directing the film which is currently in production.

McQuarrie Tweaking “Top Gun 2” Script
After numerous collaborations together, it comes as little surprise that writer-director Christopher McQuarrie will once again team with Tom Cruise for the upcoming “Top Gun” sequel.
Cruise has confirmed in a new interview with Empire that McQuarrie will be doing some script polishing work on the follow-up to the 1986 action feature which Cruise’s “Oblivion” director Joseph Kosinski is helming.
The scenario here is similar to what happened with both “Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol” and “Edge of Tomorrow” where McQuarrie was brought in to do some polishing work on the script right before and during production.
Peter Craig, Justin Marks and Eric Warren Singer are expected to remain the credited screenwriters on “Top Gun 2” which also stars Val Kilmer, Jennifer Connelly, Miles Teller, Jon Hamm, Ed Harris, Glen Powell, Manny Jacinto, Lewis Pullman, and Thomasin McKenzie.
Filming is currently underway for a June 26th 2020 release.

Cruise Flying Air Force Jets For Top Gun 2″
Not long ago came word that the release of “Top Gun 2: Maverick” was being delayed almost a year, though why wasn’t really clear beyond the obvious advantage move to an early Summer 2020 bow.
Now The Sun is reporting that the film’s star Tom Cruise is partly responsible, saying that he has put the filming of “Top Gun 2: Maverick” on hold so that he can learn to fly a fighter jet – making him the first actor in cinematic history to truly fly a fighter jet on the big screen.
A source for the paper says: “Tom is well known for doing his own stunts and the Top Gun sequel is no different… He prides himself on making the action sequences as realistic as possible… He won’t film all the flight sequences, it’s too dangerous, but he will fly some, making him the first actor in cinema history to do so.”
“Top Gun 2” has been filming around the Los Angeles and San Diego areas for the last few months.

U.S. Navy Defends Tom Cruise From Attacks
Officials for the U.S. Navy have stepped up to shoot down attacks on Tom Cruise’s interpersonal conduct. Production on “Top Gun: Maverick” has been underway with the team having reportedly filmed some scenes aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt in San Diego.
Shortly after a media report originating from Reddit began to spread and quotes sources who suggested Cruise’s behavior was seen by at least one of the sailors as ‘very arrogant’.
Then last week NBC San Diego spoke with a service member who told them Cruise “angered USS Theodore crew while filming”. However, an official has stepped in to defend Cruise and tells the outlet the accusations are unfounded:
“Tom Cruise and the cast were nothing but gracious and professional during filming to all of the sailors. Some sailors may have misinterpreted guidance from the Navy that told sailors to not approach actors while filming and not use cell phones on the set.”
In addition, Navy escorts who accompanied Cruise through filming disputed that account: “At no time did Tom Cruise say to a sailor, ‘Do not look at me. Do not touch me.'” Cruise also reportedly personally thanked the crew for their support of the film.

The original was an entertaining summer blockbuster that I enjoyed. Hopefully the sequel will be in a similar vein.
Certainly, for me, the most memorable aspect of the original appears to be present in the follow-up to some degree...
PS - As for timing, if they were going to do this, it should've been done about 20 years ago.
However, Hollywood seems to be getting steadily more desperate and they long ago ran out of original ideas.
