Top Gun 3: Miles Teller 'Having Some Conversations' With Tom Cruise About Sequel

It has been more than a month since the successful theatrical release of Top Gun: Maverick and speculation about a potential follow-up are circulating.

This shouldn’t come as a shock as it has already earned a gross of over $1 billion at the worldwide box office. In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight (via Deadline), Whiplash star Miles Teller opened up about the future of the franchise, confirming that he’s currently “having some conversations” with Tom Cruise about a potential Top Gun 3.

Teller has been enjoying some worldwide recognition lately for his portrayal of Rooster, who has been an instant fan favorite since the start. He went on to reveal that the development of Top Gun 3 will only be possible if Cruise wants it to happen.

“That [a sequel] would be great, but that’s all up to TC,” Teller said. “It’s all up to Tom.”

Top Gun: Maverick is set in a world of drone technology and fifth-generation fighters, and explores the end of the era of dogfighting. Maverick is now a flight instructor, who takes Bradley Bradshaw, the son of Maverick’s late partner Nick “Goose” Bradshaw, under his wing.

Joining Cruise are Miles Teller, Jon Hamm, Val Kilmer, Jennifer Connelly, Glen Powell, Monica Barbaro, Danny Ramirez, Manny Jacinto, Jay Ellis, Bashir Salahuddin, Jean Louisa Kelly, Charles Parnell, Ed Harris, and more.
