Can't praise the cast of #TopGunMaverick enough. This is easily one of Tom Cruise's best performances in years and his chemistry with Jennifer Connelly really works too. Both Miles Teller & Glen Powell display so much movie star charm. It's a charming core of new young pilots. pic.twitter.com/L5rA8kiojx

Top Gun: Maverick is set over 30 years after the events of Top Gun and sees Maverick training a group of Top Gun graduates, including Rooster, the son of his late wingman Goose, for a specialized mission. The action film, like the original, makes no mention of the enemy force, which is something that Kosinski said is in line with the first film.

Filmmaker Joseph Kosinski in a recent interview with PTI said "Maverick" deals with themes that are universal in nature and that's why "there's no name or face on our enemy". "This is a film about friendship and sacrifice. It's about this team that comes together to keep the world safe. That was very much by design. And because the themes of this film are so universal, I don't think it makes any difference where you're from," he added.

Top Gun: Maverick is produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, Tom Cruise, Christopher McQuarrie and David Ellison. The film also features Glen Powell, Lewis Pullman, Charles Parnell, Bashir Salahuddin, Monica Barbaro, Jay Ellis, Danny Ramirez, Greg Tarzan Davis with Ed Harris and Val Kilmer.

The Paramount Pictures movie is exclusively distributed in India by Viacom18 Studios and will release in theatres on May 27.
