Top Gun 2: The sudden return of Val Kilmer in the latest trailer for Maverick

The latest trailer for Top Gun Maverick, released in late March, reveals an unexpected return, the role of Val Kilmer in the role of the Ice Man with Tom Cruise.

We are finally there! A little over a month later the public will finally be able to discover Top Gun Maverick, a sequel to the cult film Tom Cruise, released in 1986.

This second opus, due to be released in 2020, has been delayed several times due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This time Captain Pete Mitchell, known as “Maverick”, is ready with a new dose of high speed!

Tom Cruise will also present a feature film on the Croisette before its national release in France. However, it is not yet known whether he will land by fighter jet, helicopter or parachute jump.

This long-awaited sequel has already released two trailers that have failed to impress Tom Cruise fans. However, the mystery remained: Val Kilmer, the translator of Tom’s Kazan’s first opus, “Ice Man”, was he going to be part of the Top Gun 2 adventure?

A recent trailer released in late March removed some of the curtain on this puzzle. Finally Val Kilmer appears, but with a portrait hanging on the wall of John Hamm’s office.

“You are here at the request of Admiral Kazansky, the same ice man”Tells Maverick who must take on a team of talented young pilots. “You seem to believe you can still serve the boat. How? I do not know”He concludes, clearly skeptical.

In this portrait, Eisen appears to have led the U.S. Army, still just as charismatic in his military suit.

However, Val Kilmer is not physically represented in these images, suggesting that he will not appear physically in the film. Indeed, the 62-year-old actor has had serious health problems in recent years. After suffering from throat cancer and two tracheostomies, he almost lost the ability to speak.

For him, cinema is now an ancient history. If the artist can still speak, it is still very painful and requires a lot of effort.

So it’s hard to imagine Val Kilmer exchanging Tom Cruise for Top Gun 2. However, this wink remains very sympathetic as the actor is appreciated by the fans.

Recall, Top Gun Maverick will be released in theaters on May 25th.
