Fascinating story

With his team, he is constantly experimenting to reach new limits in the sky.
Fate puts Maverick in charge of training a team of elite pilots who have just graduated from Top Gun flight school. In this group is also lieutenant Bradley Bradshaw (Miles Teller) with the codename “Rooster” – the son of his late friend and Radar Interceptor: Nick Bradshaw – codenamed “Goose”.
Their mission is to destroy an enemy weapons factory located in a complex terrain. So after all these years, Maverick found himself right back where he started, but this time he was a middle-aged man, an experienced pilot, a man of loss.

Guaranteed breathtaking action, eye-catching
Maverick’s Super Pilot is thanks to the great efforts of producer Jerry Bruckheimer, director Joseph Kosinski as well as the male lead Tom Cruise. One of the first standards they set for the film was that the sequel had to be shot as realistically as possible.
The team worked with the Navy and TOPGUN to create a detailed plan. Tom Cruise shared: “If you do it, you must definitely do it with the F-18.” Therefore, the actors “have spent three months training to the point of exhaustion”.
Planes launched from aircraft carriers are likely to fall into the water. Tom Cruise said: “The Navy said if you get out of the plane, you have to be able to survive in the water. So we had to go through a challenging underwater training program.”
During flight training under the direct guidance of Tom Cruise, the actors had to go through hours of stress no less than the actual fighter pilot training process. They were flipped upside down, and had to try to get out. They have to learn how to operate the plane, know what to do in confrontation situations, under the pressure of acceleration …
The actors even learned how to operate the camera in the cockpit. Tom Cruise showed his co-stars the filming and lighting so they understood what it was like to shoot well. Along with the talent of Claudio Miranda’s cinematography, Super Pilot Maverick has a live visual that takes the audience directly into the pilots’ cockpits.
We feel like we can feel the terrifying speed of the fighters, the shrill sound of deadly skirmishes, or the tremendous pressure on the pilots when they are subjected to accelerations up to 8G. This is the perfect blockbuster to enjoy at the cinema to fully feel the sound and visual effects that match the story.

Returning after 36 years, but to the audience, Tom Cruise’s Maverick seems to have only been absent for a day or two. The actor is still in his best form when playing with co-stars who are decades younger than him.
Celebrated as a global cultural icon, Tom Cruise has helped build some of the most memorable characters in cinematic history. The total box office receipts of the films in which the three-time Oscar-nominated actor has participated has reached $10 billion – an achievement that probably will not be achieved by anyone.
Tom Cruise was a key factor in the success of Top Gun in 1986, and promises to continue to be the brightest star of Maverick Super Pilot. It was he who emphasized the importance of realism in production and took the lead in shooting the action sequences himself. Tom Cruise is not only a co-star and producer, but he is the soul of the Top Gun brand.
