✖ Having previously graced the cover of the new edition of Total Film, Tom Cruise is back as Maverick in new photos from the Top Gun sequel, Top Gun: Maverick. The new photos, released via Total Film feature both Cruise's Maverick and Miles Teller as Goose's son, Rooster. The film has been long-delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic but is set to finally debut later this year. The film is the long-awaited sequel to the original 1996 Top Gun, one of Cruise's best-loved films.
Teller previously discussed prepping for his big role as Goose's son."I had about three months of flight training before starting the movie," Teller told Men's Journal."That time was important to get comfortable with the crafts but also to build up our G-force tolerance, because all of the aerial elements were shot practically. The training started in a Cessna, and moved to an Extra 300, a single-prop aerobatics craft, where you start to improve your G-tolerance.
