Hollywood star Tom Cruise says he would be open to reprising his 1980s role as U.S. Navy pilot Maverick in a possible sequel to action drama “Top Gun”.
The 1986 blockbuster turned Cruise into a major box office draw. Last month, film producer and Skydance media company Chief Executive David Ellison was quoted in media reports as saying work on a “Top Gun 2” screenplay was underway.
“It would be fun. I would like to get back into those jets,” Cruise told Reuters at the London premiere of his latest action film “Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation” on Saturday night.
“It would have to be practical. I don’t want any CGI jets. I want to shoot it like how we shot the first one.”
