Glen Powell hints at Top Gun sequel amid Hollywood success
During one of his recent interviews promoting the movie "Twisters," Glen Powell hinted that he has time reserved next year for filming a sequel to the 2022 hit. This was enough to ignite a wave of comments online. Viewers do not doubt that he referred to the third installment of "Top Gun."

After the success of the comedy “Anyone But You” and the disaster spectacle “Twisters,” 35-year-old Glen Powell has gained the status of a rising star in Hollywood. Previously, he spent many years mostly “wandering” in supporting roles. This was the case, for example, in the movie "Top Gun: Maverick" from two years ago. If the information is confirmed, he will be a lead character in the blockbuster—a lead, but of course, two or three steps behind Tom Cruise.
In "Top Gun: Maverick," Glen Powell portrayed Lieutenant Jake "Hangman" Seresin. His statement that he has time reserved for filming the sequel to the 2022 hit may mean that his next mission will be a space expedition. This could be a requirement of the film's script (Powell already has some experience in this area, as he played John Glenn in the movie “Hidden Figures”).
This time, the space expedition could be literal because it has long been known that Tom Cruise is working on a project that will allow him to film in space. The star is involved in creating the space film studio named SEE-1, which will dock at the first commercial space station, Axiom Station.
The space studio will allow artists, producers, and creators to produce, record, and broadcast content. "SEE-1 is an incredible opportunity for humanity to move into a different realm and start an exciting new chapter in space," assure the owners of SEE-1.
Tom Cruise can afford to take the financial risk associated with the enormous costs of producing the third instalment of "Top Gun." The previous one earned nearly €1.4 billion worldwide and became the biggest hit of the actor's career.
