It’s being reported that in Top Gun: Maverick, Goose’s son, Wrigley, will be a member of the Top Gun class that’s being taught by Tom Cruise’s principal character.
One could surmise that Wrigley holds a grudge against Pete Mitchell because he holds him responsible for his father’s death.
However, if you’re expecting Maverick and Wrigley to have a mentor/mentee relationship right for the bat, you’ll want to pump the breaks.
For those who need a refresher, Goose died when he and Maverick were ejecting from their jet when it went into a flatspin.
