Paramount Pictures’ movie “Top Gun: Maverick” is coming to streaming after its May theatrical release.
The summer blockbuster is hitting Paramount+ on December 22. It is already available on digital, 4K Ultra HD, and Blu-ray.
“Top Gun: Maverick” is the most successful film of 2022 and the most successful of Tom Cruise’s career.
It was a long road to streaming for "Top Gun: Maverick" as Cruise refused to let the movie debut online when the coronavirus pandemic was having a huge impact on the box office. This led to multiple delays for the sequel to 1986’s “Top Gun".
“Top Gun: Maverick” saw Cruise and Val Kilmer reprising their roles from the original movie.
It also starred Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, Glen Powell, Lewis Pullman, and Ed Harris.
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 $170 million-budgeted 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.
He is forced to navigate the increasingly complex world of drone warfare as he mentors a new generation of Navy pilots.
