Moreover, it was also recently announced that Only The Brave actor Miles Teller would take on the role of Goose’s son, while Set It Up star Glen Powell would also join as a Top Gun pilot codenamed “Slayer.”
This ensemble includes returning actors Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer, who will reprise their respective roles as Maverick and Iceman.
All of these newcomers will join an already impressive cast.
Powell was actually in the running to play the son of Maverick’s best friend before Teller got the part, but he made a good enough impression to get this role as a consolation prize.
