Jon Hamm explains the relationship between his character Vice Admiral Cyclone and Tom Cruise's Maverick in the long-awaited TopGunMaverick
Jon Hamm explains the relationship between his character and Tom Cruise’s Maverick in the long-awaited Top Gun 2. Cruise became a superstar when the original Top Gun was released in 1986 and went on to gross $357 million.
A film as iconic as Top Gun of course would normally have spawned one if not multiple sequels but in this case Cruise moved on to other things and Top Gun 2 remained just a dream. But now that dream is finally being realized as the officially titled Top Gun: Maverick is heading to theaters after months and months of COVID-related delays. Plot-wise the Top Gun follow-up sees Cruise’s Maverick as an older but not necessarily wiser fighter pilot who still has not lost his need for speed.
Yeah. I play the boss, the guy who's shaking his finger and telling Tom Cruise that he's writing checks his body can't cash. It's exciting. The movie is tremendous. Talk about excited. I cannot wait for people to see this film. It's everything you want the sequel to Top Gun to be. It's super-great. I don't want to spoil it, but it's awesome.
The finger-shaker is of course a key role in a Top Gun film as, by scolding Maverick for things like buzzing towers, he helps convey to the audience just how daring and reckless Maverick truly is and helps get the audience on Maverick’s side by establishing an authority figure for him to defy.
With Cruise not wanting slow down yet, Hamm seems like a solid choice for the scolding authority figure role, as he conveys a lot of strength while still having the right sense of lightness and humor to work in what is essentially a cartoonish and silly universe. It will be fun to see Hamm and Cruise share the screen as antagonists when Top Gun 2 finally ends its very long journey to the big screen.
