How Tom Cruise Convinced Hangman Actor To Join Top Gun: Maverick
Top Gun: Maverick star Glen Powell revealed that he was convinced to join the film by Tom Cruise after seeing Mission: Impossible — Fallout. The film, which came out in theaters on May 27 after significant pandemic-related delays, is a decades-later sequel to the 1985 hit Top Gun, which was directed by Tony Scott. The film follows Cruise, reprising his role as the hotshot fighter pilot Maverick, returning to guide a brand new crop of young pilots as they prepare for a major mission. However, complications ensue when he learns that one of the pilots is Rooster Bradshaw (Miles Teller), the son of Maverick's friend Goose, who blames Maverick for his father's death.
