In conversation with HELLO! Magazine, Cruise talked about how two of his biggest goals in life was to either become an actor or a pilot. Top Gun had helped the star combine his two passions, and Cruise referred to it as a ‘huge moment’ for him. Calling the film ‘life changing’, the actor opened up about how he had gotten a chance to fly in an F-14 jet which was a ‘dream come true’ for him. He also expressed his delight in reprising the role of a character he loved in the upcoming film.
The Mission: Impossible star also opened up about the aircraft stunts he was able to do in Top Gun: Maverick. He revealed that in some sequences, his own personal plane was used and so he got to pilot the same. "I also got to be in the jet fighter a lot more this time, which was thrilling”, he added.
