We chat with the new group of recruits in TopGunMaverick - JayREllis, Lewis Pullman & Monica Barbaro - about the story behind their callsigns and how it reflects their personalities in real life:
Top Gun: Maverick has taken the box office by storm, already boasting the highest Thursday gross ever for Paramount with an incredible $150M projection for the weekend. A sequel decades in the making, the follow-up to 1986's Top Gun sees Peter"Maverick" Mitchell a very different man at 50 than he was at 25, and it explores how he handles the next generation of recruits who are now as fresh-faced as he once was.
But then by the end, there's some little interpretations and maybe some hidden Easter egg ideas of what Bob might mean. I'm curious to hear what the audience might come up with. Jay Ellis: And in that same night, Monica was a beer champion. She could take 'em down, they had no idea. And at a certain point, I tapped out. She kept going, which was also insanely impressive, and then woke up the next morning like nothing happened.Jay Ellis: No, that's her catchphrase. Did you guys wear wet jeans during the football scene? Monica Barbaro: I still don't know what that means.
