After 36 years, Tom Cruise finally returned as Captain Peter Mitchell in Top Gun: Maverick.
The critically acclaimed sequel garnered over $1.4 billion at the global box office, so it’s hardly surprising that a third film is now in the works.
Although Cruise made a joint-development deal with Warner Bros early this week, it was non-exclusive to the studio so the Hollywood star is still free to make the Paramount Pictures movie.
All that might not matter though, what with talks between Warner Bros Discovery and Paramount about a possible merger having taken place last month.
As first reported by Puck, Top Gun: Maverick co-writer Ehren Kruger will pen Top Gun 3.
The plan is to reunite Cruise’s Maverick with Miles Teller and Glen Powell’s characters in the previous movie.
Meanwhile, producers Jerry Bruckheimer and David Ellison are expected to return with the last film’s director Joe Kosinski either directing or producing.
