Jerry Bruckheimer Still Wants to Make TOP GUN 2

During the "Produced By" conference this past weekend, producer Jerry Bruckheimer revealed that he's still trying to get a Top Gun sequel into production. Tom Cruise and Tony Scott were both on board to bring it to life, but after Scott passed away no one was sure what was going to happen with it. I figured they would bury the project, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Here's what Bruckheimer had to say,

For 30 years we’ve been trying to make a sequel and we’re not going to stop. We still want to do it with Tom [Cruise] and Paramount are still interested in making it.

What Tom tells me is that no matter where he goes in the world, people refer to him as Maverick. It’s something he is excited about so as long as he keeps his enthusiasm hopefully we’ll get it made.

It would be fun to see a Top Gun sequel. I just would have liked to see Scott direct it. If they do move forward with it, and it sounds like they will, hopefully they bring on a solid director to bring it to life.

Who would you like to see direct Top Gun 2?
