<p>The film directed by Joseph Kosinski and starring Cruise scored a rare A+ CinemaScore, too. It was not only a hit with theater-goers domestically, but ended up being the second highest grossing movie worldwide based on pure calendar days of 2022.</p>
<p>&#8220;Top Gun: Maverick&#8221; has also been nominated for a total of six Oscars, including Best Picture, Adapted Screenplay (from Ehren Kruger, Christopher McQuarrie, Eric Warren Singer, Peter Craig, and Justin Marks), along with a nomination for Lady Gaga and BloodPop&#8217;s original song &#8220;Hold My Hand,&#8221; the outlet noted.</p>
<p>In the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/top-gun-maverick-becomes-studios-highest-earning-film-at-domestic-box-office-in-its-110-year-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">non-woke sequel</a>, Cruise&#8217;s character &#8220;Pete Mitchell is where he belongs, pushing the envelope as a courageous test pilot and dodging the advancement in rank that would ground him,&#8221; before he is called back to “Top Gun,” according to <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1745960/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IMDb</a>.</p>
<p>The film&#8217;s global success has made it the &#8220;Mission: Impossible&#8221; star&#8217;s first film to ever reach such a milestone. The success of the movie did not escape Cruise, who previously took to social media to thank fans for turning up in droves.</p>
<p>&#8220;To all the films in release, to all the studios, and to all the exhibitors: congratulations,&#8221; Cruise’s <a href="https://twitter.com/TomCruise/status/1541489523485442048?s=20&amp;t=ByFJE-HCPM_waJk-exr3Fw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tweet</a> to his 6.9 million followers read.</p>
