That’s not the angle they were going for, though, and I’m curious to see how Miles Teller and Tom Cruise play off each other.
I remember when Top Gun 2 was casting for Goose’s son and it came down to Miles Teller and a few others, including Glen Powell.
Powell ended up in the movie anyway as Hangman, but some fans thought he might get the gig because he more closely resembles Anthony Edwards.
Apparently it was tough for Teller to keep up with Cruise, which doesn’t sound surprising since that seemed to be the case for all of the young stars, who were put through a grueling flight program Cruise designed himself.
