Top Gun 3 has been officially announced, with Tom Cruise reprising his role as Maverick. The highly anticipated sequel comes after the massive success of Top Gun: Maverick in 2022, which became the twelfth highest-grossing movie of all time.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Long before the release of Top Gun 3 , the heavily anticipated blockbuster already has one major difference from Top Gun: Maverick . Since the incredible box office success of 2022's Top Gun: Maverick , it quickly became known that a Top Gun 3 was inevitable. Top Gun 2 is currently the twelfth highest-grossing movie ever made and was the most profitable film of 2022 by a long shot, earning a whopping $1.

From its inception to its eventual release, Top Gun: Maverick took decades to make happen from script to screen. Rumors of a Top Gun sequel had been kicked around since the release of the original movie in 1986, but it wasn't until 2010 that Paramount seriously started to develop a sequel. Even after that major step forward, it still took another 12 years to hit screens and become one of the most financially successful movies ever made.

Since Top Gun: Maverick was considered to be a legacy sequel, the passage of time was clearly felt throughout the story. Maverick is no longer the young, ambitious hotshot from the 1986 movie but is now the older, ambitious hotshot in the 2022 sequel. Although Maverick's character doesn't change much from film to film, the passing of time is inevitable, as demonstrated by the fate of Iceman in Top Gun 2.
