What to know about Top Gun: Maverick
Top Gun: Maverick is a long-awaited sequel to 1986's Top Gun. In the original film, we see students at the US Navy's elite fighter weapons school competing to be the best in the class.

Fast forward to the sequel, and after more than thirty years of service as one of the Navy's top aviators, Mitchell is still pushing the envelope as a courageous test pilot and "dodging the advancement in rank that would ground him".
