Fans will have to wait longer to see Maverick.
Tom Cruise’s Top Gun sequel has been pushed back nearly a year. The Paramount Pictures film, which was supposed to be released in July 2019, is now set to hit theaters on June 2020.
According to ET the studio’s decision to delay the release of Top Gun: Maverick is to allow time to put more work into the complex flight sequences as the production has to figure out the logistics of presenting new and modern technology and planes.
Both Cruise and Val Kilmer will reprise their roles for the sequel to the 1986 hit drama. The film will explore the fate of dogfighting in a new ear of drone technology. Also starring are Jon Hamm, Ed Harris, Lewis Pullman, Glen Powell, Jennifer Connelly and Miles Teller.
