After more than 30 years of service as a top naval aviator, Pete “Maverick” Mitchell (TOM CRUISE) is where he belongs, pushing the envelope as a courageous test pilot. Yet, Maverick must confront the ghosts of his past when he returns to TOP GUN to train a group of elite graduates and comes face-to-face with Lt. Bradshaw (MILES TELLER), the son of his former wingman, "Goose". Bitter rivalries ignite as the pilots prepare for a specialised mission, which will require the ultimate sacrifice from those chosen to fly it.
