[Falaskan]

I can't not say the movie title in this voice...

Kenny Loggins is making another version of Danger Zone for the movie.

[Geoff D]

And can we PLEASE have Harold Faltermeyer's score to the first movie released at long last? Ta.

Not that it would essential to the plot but it would be nice to see Tom Skerritt and Michael Ironside back.

La-La Land Records has been... teasing it?

[Eye Candy]

I just want Cruise to work in this line for Val, somewhere in the movie:

"I'm your Huckleberry..."

[Ernest Rister]

Cruise learned how to fly a helicopter for this summer's Mission Impossible. Took 120-something high-altitude parachute drops to get footage for a sequence. Watch that guy learn how to fly an old Tomcat and land it on the field of the Superbowl for Top Gun 2

Nicholas Hoult, Glen Powell and Miles Teller Frontrunners for Big 'Top Gun 2' Role (Exclusive)
JUNE 27, 2018 10:00am PT by Borys Kit

The sequel starring Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer is looking to cast the son of Maverick’s wingman and best pal, Goose (played by Anthony Edwards in the original).

Nicholas Hoult, Glen Powell and Miles Teller are the frontrunners for a key role in Top Gun 2.

The long-awaited sequel to the seminal 1980s movie once again stars Tom Cruise, reprising his role as the hot-shot pilot with the call sign Maverick.

Joseph Kosinski, who directed Cruise in sci-fi thriller Oblivion, is directing the movie, which is also bringing back Val Kilmer's rival pilot code-named Iceman.

But the highly coveted role for the young men of Hollywood this time around is the son of Maverick’s wingman and best pal, Goose. Played by Anthony Edwards in the Tony Scott-directed original, the character provided an emotional spine to the movie when he is killed by accident and Maverick blames himself.

The original featured Goose’s son as a young boy, with Meg Ryan playing his mother.

Producers — who include Cruise, Jerry Bruckheimer and Skydance’s David Ellison — have been testing actors for several weeks, winnowing the list down to Hoult, Powell and Teller. Dylan O'Brien and Austin Butler were among those in the mix in a previous stage.

Insiders say some of the final round of testing took place earlier this week in Clearwater, Fla., where Cruise lives and is prepping to launch his press tour for Mission: Impossible – Fallout. Clearwater is also a Scientology headquarters.

Hoult plays the blue-furred Beast in the X-Men movies and counts Mad Max: Fury Road and Rebel in the Rye amongst his credits.

Powell currently stars in Set It Up, Netflix's surprise hit romantic comedy that also stars Zoey Deutch. He played astronaut John Glenn in Hidden Figures and appeared in Fox's Scream Queens.

Teller starred in the big-screen dramas Thank You for Your Service and Only the Brave. His big breakout film was 2014’s Whiplash.

I really hope it’s not Teller.

I hope it's not the guy in the middle.

[Michael24]

Not familiar with Powell, not a fan of Teller, but I like Hoult. Lookswise, I could totally buy him as Goose's son.

[Pounder]

Has Kilmer's voice gotten better?
