Top Gun’s sequel Top Gun: Maverick was a huge success at the box office from the moment it was released.
It was revealed that Tom Cruise, the lead actor and one of the producers of the movie, offered the famous Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton a role to take part in the movie.
“I REGRETTED IT SO MUCH WHEN I WATCHED IT”
The 39-year-old pilot, who is known to be friends with Cruise for a long time, spoke to GQ magazine.
Hamilton, who had previously told Cruise that he wanted to be in the movie if the sequel was made, “even if he was a janitor,” said, “First of all, I hadn’t even taken an acting class. And I didn’t want to be the one who let this movie down. Secondly, I didn’t have the time. I was very upset that I didn’t accept. Then when I watched the movie, I regretted it very much. It could have been me.”
THERE IS STILL A CHANCE
It is known that work has begun on the third movie in the series, so Hamilton still has a chance to take part in the Top Gun saga.
TOP GUN ABOUT MAVERICK
It became the highest-grossing movie of Tom Cruise’s career.
Steven Spielberg praised Tom Cruise, the star and producer of Top Gun: Maverick and praised its star and producer Tom Cruise for his contribution to the Hollywood world.
“You saved Hollywood. Seriously, ‘Maverick’ may have saved the whole movie industry.”
