This summer, Tom Cruise’s action-packed masterpiece, Top Gun: Maverick, will officially grace the big screen after several rescheduled premieres. Paramount Pictures recently dropped a surprise trailer, revealing new details that will keep audiences on the edge of their seats.
Top Gun, released in 1986, captivated millions with its daring aerial stunts, realistic combat aircraft stories, and profound emotions about love and camaraderie. The film won the People’s Choice Award in 1987 for the Most Beloved Film and secured a spot in the list of the Best Works of the 80s, recognized as one of the 25 culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant films chosen for preservation.
In the sequel, after more than three decades of service, Pete ‘Maverick’ Mitchell, once the Navy’s top test pilot, avoids promotion opportunities, feeling constrained. He returns to be himself, a captain. During a special mission training at Top Gun military school, Maverick encounters Lieutenant Bradley Bradshaw (Miles Teller), aka Rooster, the son of his late best friend, Nick Bradshaw.
Ở phần phim tiếp theo, sau hơn ba mươi năm phục vụ, Pete “Maverick” Mitchell từng nổi danh là một phi công thử nghiệm quả cảm hàng đầu của Hải quân, né tránh cơ hội thăng chức, điều khiến anh cảm thấy bị bó buộc, để trở về làm chính mình – một đại úy. Trong đợt đào tạo biệt đội tại trường quân sự Top Gun cho nhiệm vụ chuyên biệt chưa từng có, Maverick chạm trán với Trung úy Bradley Bradshaw (Miles Teller), với biệt danh Rooster, chính là con trai của người bạn thân quá cố Nick Bradshaw.
Embarking on this mission, Pete Mitchell not only faces life-threatening challenges but also confronts the haunting shadows of the past, deep-rooted fears within his soul.
Building on the previous trailers, this snippet brings viewers closer to the elite squad Maverick will lead. They are the best graduates of Top Gun, including the indispensable Rooster and a new character known as Hangman.
Notably, after much teasing in previous trailers about Iceman’s return – once Maverick’s formidable rival, this trailer almost confirms it. The one summoning Pete Mitchell back for training is none other than Admiral Kazansky, aka Iceman. Having faced Maverick in numerous missions, he understands the extraordinary capabilities possessed by few and believes Pete Mitchell is the perfect fit for the special forces training position.
Amidst the revealed scenes of breathtaking aerial maneuvers, the film maintains the intense and suspenseful style inherent to Top Gun. A battle at the level of ‘not a living pilot has ever witnessed,’ is what describes the mission that Maverick and his team will confront in this installment, promising an cinematic experience worthy of the audience’s long-awaited anticipation.
Directed by Joseph Kosinski, the mastermind behind acclaimed films like TRON: Legacy (2010) and Oblivion (2013), Top Gun: Maverick is penned by esteemed writers including Eric Warren Singer (American Hustle), Peter Craig (The Hunger Games: Mockingjay), and Justin Marks (The Jungle Book).
Alongside the return of Tom Cruise as the iconic Maverick, the film welcomes new faces such as talented actor Miles Teller, the stunning Jennifer Connelly, and other notable performers like Jon Hamm, Glen Powell, Lewis Pullman, Ed Harris, and Monica Barbaro.
Scheduled for release on May 27, 2022, Top Gun: Maverick is set to hit the screens with full throttle excitement.
