'Top Gun 2' Is In The Works, Producer Says

It has been 25 years since Tom Cruise starred in Top Gun, the hit film taking place in fighter pilot school. Now, Top Gun 2 may finally be well on its way to a reality, according to Paramount's Adam Goodman.

"We'll likely make a Top Gun sequel with Tom Cruise first," Goodman told The Hollywood Reporter. "Jerry Bruckheimer would produce, with Tony Scott returning to direct. All parties are moving ahead. We've hired Peter Craig to write the script."

Craig was hired in March to replace X-Men: First Class screenwriters Ashley Miller and Zack Stentz, who became too busy with other projects to focus on Top Gun 2.
