Actor Miles Teller, who plays pilot Lt. Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw in Top Gun: Maverick, has reportedly already spoken repeatedly with Tom Cruise about making the growing franchise into a proper trilogy. According to Entertainment Tonight, the ball is in Cruise's court.

"It's all up to Tom," said Teller. "I've been having some conversations with him about it… that would be great, but that's all up to TC. For him to share Top Gun with me and a lot of these other young actors it's just been such a wild ride, and it's still going."
