#TRAILERCHEST: We’ve got our first look at Top Gun: Maverick, and we are more than ready for it

Partying like it’s 1986.

Welcome to #TrailerChest, where we’re taking a sneak peek at the brand new trailer for Top Gun: Maverick.

Plot’s it all about?

The trailer shows us a look at Tom Cruise’s legendary character of Pete ‘Maverick’ Mitchell, and he is now very much in a veteran position.

The sequel to the 1986 classic sees him mentor a whole new generation of U.S. Navy fighter pilots, and even though his best years may be behind him, he looks absolutely ripped.

Not bad for a 57-year-old, if you ask us.

There’s loads of callbacks to the original movie too – volleyball scenes, riding motorcycles, and flying fighter jets. Class.

We didn’t get much other information other than that, but that doesn’t mean we’re not still buzzing.

Starring: Tom Cruise, Miles Teller, Glen Powell, Jennifer Connelly.

Directed by: Joseph Kosinski.

Irish release date: 17 July, 2020.

Enjoy!
