Val Kilmer will star opposite Tom Cruise in the "Top Gun:
Maverick," an individual with knowledge of the production told
TheWrap.
 
Kilmer will join Cruise in the long-awaited sequel to Tony Scott's 1986
action blockbuster, in which Cruise's aviator Pete "Maverick"
Mitchell is now a mentor to a new generation of U.S. Navy fighter pilots.
 
A rep for Paramount declined to comment on the casting of Kilmer, who has
been spotted around the San Diego hotel the studio has been using since
production began last week.
 
Kilmer, who played aviator Tom "Iceman" Kazansky and Cruise's
chief rival in the original film, is repped by CAA and Hirsch Wallerstein
Hayum Matlof and Fishman.

Roger
