Top Gun: Maverick will now land on 26th June 2020, Paramount Pictures have revealed.

The film starring Tom Cruise who is set to reprise his role of Pete “Maverick” Mitchell from the 1986 original, was scheduled to land into cinemas next summer.

Earlier this year Tom Said: Mission: Impossible star Cruise promised the Top Gun sequel would feature flying sequences that have to be seen to be believed.

He said: “The reason I’m doing it is all these years people have said ‘we would like another one’ and we finally figured out a tone and a script that I thought was worthy for those audiences.

“So we are all going to work very hard and make it as great as we can.

“We have shot for three days already and it’s going to be a long process.

“It’s a very technically complex film to make and the in-air sequences are not to be believed. It’s going to be challenging.”
