On the bright side, we’ve been talking about a potential remake for Top Gun for a quite a while.
The fact that it now seems to finally be coming together and even has a plot is a great sign; instead of talking about the possibility of another movie, hopefully we’ll start seeing the cast and crew get fleshed out over the next few months.
Tom Cruise brought it up way back in 2015 in an interview where he talked about wanting to fly the jets, again, and in an era that is ripe for reboots and remakes, this certainly doesn’t come off like the worst idea.
