Top Gun Maverick will be rereleased in theatres before the debut of Avatar: The Way of Water, much to the delight of Tom Cruise fans. Maverick, a sequel to the popular 1986 movie, had a meteoric box office debut. With a lifetime gross of $1.486 billion, it became the most successful film of 2022.
Additionally, it elevated Cruise to the position of highest-paid actor of the year. For that, he received $100 million. The movie is being rereleased after breaking numerous box office records while it was in theatres.
As per reports, Paramount is bringing Top Gun Maverick back to the big screens for two weeks (Dec 2 to Dec 15), just before the premiere of Avatar: The Way of Water. Though the Tom Cruise starrer has already done a marvellous job at the box office, this move can help them get a bit more edge from the James Cameron directorial.
As we all know that 2009’s Avatar is the biggest movie of all time, and a lot is expected from the sequel as well. The box office projections of The Way of Water are high. While one cannot say for sure that it crosses its predecessor, the Zoe Saldana starrer could give competition to Top Gun Maverick.
While talking about the Tom Cruise starrer, fans have wondered if there will be a threequel. Previous reports suggested that it will take more than a decade to make Top Gun 3. The reason behind this is said to be Cruise’s busy schedule.
We all know that Tom Cruise never rests. He is filming some movie or the other and currently is busy with the production of Mission Impossible 7 & 8. No confirmation on a third instalment has been made yet either. Till then, fans can enjoy Top Gun Maverick.
