It's already on its way to becoming one of the biggest films of the year as its international box office numbers soar past $557.2 million, according to Deadline. Almost 40 years after Tom Cruise's Pete "Maverick" Mitchell joined the TOPGUN flight school, audiences are still captivated by his character's journey. And now there's a whole new generation of Navy pilots — played by Glen Powell, Jay Ellis, Miles Teller, Monica Barbaro, Greg Tarzan Davis, Lewis Pullman, and Danny Ramirez — taking the Top Gun franchise by storm! The intense, high-flying sequel movie wasn't easy to make. In fact, it took a team of expert pilots to get all the cool aerial stunts to look real enough for the film. But the "Top Gun: Maverick" cast made them look like a breeze from all the fun behind-the-scenes footage they've posted on social media. Between flying aeroplanes and their intense training regimens, it's safe to say this new set of novice pilots have rightfully earned their wings.
