Put on your finest pair of aviators because I’ve got some fantastic news for Top Gun fans. Tom Cruise went on Australian morning show Sunrise, and his crazy ass dropped a major bombshell.
Watch the 54-year-old actor confirm that Top Gun 2 is happening in the video below.

Hell yes! Hollywood is rebooting everything else these days, so why not revisit the 1986 classic? I have no idea what the plot would be more than 30 years after the original, but we’re not going to let semantics like that put a damper on our enthusiasm. Maverick is returning to the skies to kick ass and take names, and that’s good enough for me.
It’s definitely a bummer that there won’t be any Goose this time around, though. R.I.P. to the dopest mustache in Navy history.
Here are a few Tom Gun clips to get you pumped up for the seuqel. I’m still shocked that playing volleyball in jeans never took off.
