[
Paramount Pictures is re-releasing Top Gun in cinemas to mark the film’s 40th anniversary.
The film will land in cinemas on May 13 and will be available for one week alongside Top Gun: Maverick, which is also heading back to cinemas.
Tom Cruise announced the re-release with a short post on his social accounts yesterday.
“If you feel the need…Two films. One big screen. Back in theaters, May 13th, for one week only,” Cruise posted alongside a trailer post.
Last week at Cinemacon, Paramount confirmed that a third Top Gun movie is currently in development. Deadline reported in 2024 that a third film in the franchise was in development with Ehren Kruger returning to write the script.
Top Gun: Maverick is the highest-grossing movie of Cruise’s career at $1.49 billion. Directed by Joseph Kosinski, it was nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture. The film won the Best Sound Oscar.
Top Gun: Maverick follows Lt. Pete “Maverick” Mitchell as he goes back to the famous flight school to teach a new set of pilots how to successfully run a mission. Miles Teller played Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw, the son of “Goose,” played by Anthony Edwards in the 1986 first film, who dies during a training exercise.
