Top Gun is a class of elite, hotshot Navy pilots at the Fighter Weapons School who strive to be the best of the best by pushing both their aircraft and one another to the maximum. In the classic 1986 blockbuster that defined a generation, Tom Cruise plays Pete “Maverick” Mitchell.

What Is Top Gun All About?

Top Gun: Maverick, which made over $1.5 billion at the global box office and was the top film of 2022 and the highest-grossing movie in Paramount Pictures’ history, will be paired with the re-release to create a must-see, back-to-back theatrical event that unites two of the most acclaimed aviation movies ever.

Pete “Maverick” Mitchell (Tom Cruise) in Top Gun: Maverick is where he belongs after more than thirty years of duty as one of the Navy’s best pilots. He pushes the boundaries as a brave test pilot and avoids the rank advancement that would ground him. Maverick meets Lt. Bradley Bradshaw (Miles Teller), call sign “Rooster,” the son of Maverick’s late friend and radar intercept officer Lt. Nick Bradshaw, also known as “Goose,” when he is training a detachment of Top Gun graduates for a specialized mission that no living pilot has ever seen.
