Tom Cruise has always maintained his position on the list of rich and powerful celebrities, regardless of how his movies have fared at the box office. His resume of movies comprises mainly of a bulk of action movies with the Mission Impossible series undoubtedly leading the pack. His other ventures have also been proven to be lucrative with the movies most notably associated with his name being Interview with the Vampire, Vanilla Sky, Minority Report, The Last Samurai, War of the Worlds, Tropic Thunder and Valkyrie.
Now one of his most critically appreciated and popular role as “Maverick” in Top Gun is going to be reprised by him for a possible sequel. Blockbuster producer Jerry Bruckheimer wants a follow up of his 1986 hit movie. “We were recently approached again to start talking about it but, you know, nothing yet,” Bruckheimer said. “We kicked around some ideas because the aviation community has completely changed since we made the movie. So we have to find a way in and how to incorporate the Maverick character into it,” he added. As of 2009, Cruise’s films have grossed over $6.5 billion worldwide. So guess that is a smart move by the producers to squeeze some more cash before the popularity of the character goes dry!
