Joseph Kosinski directed from a screenplay by Ehren Kruger, Eric Warren Singer, and Christopher McQuarrie as well as a story by Peter Craig and Justin Marks.
The movie picks up 30 years after the events of the original “Top Gun” and features Pete “Maverick” Mitchell (played by Cruise) now working at the prestigious United States Navy Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor program that he attended in the original.
