“Top Gun: Maverick” is shaping up to be one of the most popular movies of the summer with a record-breaking $160.5 million in earnings over Memorial Day weekend, but it turns out Tom Cruise didn’t want to participate at first.
Director Joseph Kosinski said he had a mere 30 minutes to convince the A-list actor, who starred in the original 1986 “Top Gun,” to participate in the project. Kosinski explained during an interview with Polygon that Cruise “really didn’t want to make” a sequel.
