Top Gun Movie
Description
Talk of a sequel emerged in 2010, when Scott confirmed he was working on one. Screenwriter-filmmaker Christopher McQuarrie was initially enlisted to pen a script. However, McQuarrie is now busy shooting One Shot, an adaptation of Lee Child's mystery thriller of the same name, said Cruise, who portrays One Shot's military-hero-turned-drifter, Jack Reacher.
Still, Cruise is eager to proceed on a Top Gun sequel. "I hope we can figure this out, to do it again," he said.
"We all want to make a film that is in the same kind of tone as the other one and shoot it in the same way as we shot Top Gun."
Inspired by an article written for California magazine, Top Gun follows a cocky, but talented young aviator training in an elite fighter pilot program for the U.S. Navy. Along with Cruise, the cast includes Kelly McGillis, Val Kilmer, Anthony Edwards and Tom Skerritt. The 1986 original is being converted to 3D for theatrical release in 2013.
