Top Gun: Maverick Trailer #2 - Tom Cruise Faces the Ghosts of His Past

• ScreenRant

The new trailer for Top Gun: Maverick is here. Even at 57 years old, Tom Cruise remains a box office force to be reckoned with, and is coming off his highest-grossing film ever, Mission: Impossible - Fallout. The actor intends to play Ethan Hunt at least two more times before he (maybe) retires from making action movies, with the seventh and eighth Mission: Impossible installments scheduled to open back to back in 2021 and 2022. Before he does, though, he will return to one of his more iconic '80s properties.

Top Gun: Maverick is due to arrive in 2020, with Cruise starring as Pete "Maverick" Mitchell almost thirty-five years after he originated the role in Tony Scott's hit 1986 action-drama Top Gun. The official trailer (which premiered at SDCC last summer) revealed Maverick is older and serving as a flight instructor for aspiring U.S. Naval fighter pilots in the film, but still has a need for speed that's led him to dodge being promoted (and, in turn, grounded) past Captain. Now, the sequel's marketing machine is revving up again.
