Here's how the Top Gun Maverick flying scenes were made. See how the Top Gun Maverick cast and crew prepared for these Top Gun Maverick scenes and Top Gun Maverick stunts, from filming the exciting Top Gun plane clips fit for an action movie, to some hardcore Tom Cruise flying lessons.
We spoke to Top Gun Maverick director Joe Kosinski and star Miles Teller about how Top Gun: Maverick's astonishing aerial sequences were achieved using unprecedented practical effects, and a rigorous training program designed by Maverick himself, Tom Cruise. Join us for a look at Top Gun Maverick behind the scenes.
Top Gun: Maverick is exclusively in UK cinemas May 25 and May 27 in the US, in 4DX and IMAX.

This movie is the first movie in a long time that feels like a real blockbuster. Practical really has a massive difference.
Yeah, since Endgame for me. Well, new Batman was amazing but it didn't have this blockbuster atmosphere. Technically if you exclude Marvel movies, the last real blockbuster must have also been Cruise's. It's his territory!
What a lot of people won't see is the level of support the Pentagon and U.S. military top officials gave the production team in making this movie. This movie - along with others before it - are purely propaganda and recruitment tools.
@@dead_on_departure sure but it's a win win situation. Military gets some inspired faces and Tom gets pretty high level access to f18s to make a sick movie. Nothings free
You do realise all the planes except the F-18s were CGI lol.. SO basically the last 20 minutes of the movie was all CGI lol
@@dead_on_departure so? The movie rocks, that's what matters to consumers.
This movie demands to be seen in a theater, no tv screen can do justice to the amount of work these guys have put in
Facts! The quality of the audio is incredible too
True. Prob why they delayed the movie. To make sure all theaters were open.
Nah, it deserves to be watched in VR!
my tv is big enough, and big audios too
@@crunchynetto6979 still. Nothing will match a theatre experience
Lol, so let me get this straight, the plot in the movie was Tom Cruise trying to teach the crew how to fly a dangerous mission, but also behind the scenes, he also put them through a REAL flying course? Dudes a legend
TC didn't teach anyone how to FLY. He taught them how to act like they were flying while the real Navy Pilots were doing the flying. Can't believe how this YT video gave SO LITTLE time discussing the contributions of the REAL pilots in the movie.
@@737smartin still impressive, but yeah the real pilot trainers deserve the credit. Cruise still doing his own stunts in this age of Hollyweird is commendable.
@@737smartin Ah, my mistake. Still point stands haha
damn you spoiled it
@@murk4552 tho cruise can fly planes , hes not licensed to fly a Fighter jet ,
Much like Dunkirk, only a movie theatre can do this film justice. The sound experience was out of this world.
Dunkirk is a pretty movie but doesn’t have much else to offer tbh
@@spacegoat_3d801 Dunkirk is basically only a theatre movie in my opinion. In that setting, it’s spectacular. But like, watching it at home is basically pointless.
Dunkirk KS the most boring dumbest worthless piece of film ever put on a big screen. The fact that you even mention it is maddening. Grow a pair you sheep
Something as simple as the flares fired from the jet sounded absolutely incredible.

Tom Cruise is a one in a lifetime actor. You can see him fighting to nail the shot as the G's destroy his face. This movie is Amazing! 10/10
Just saw it and F YEAH it is! F’ing incredible
Anyone who knows these planes sees how fake this is. You can tell immediately that the actors are NOT in the pilot's seat. Ridiculous
@@stanleymasterson1135 hater
@@stanleymasterson1135 bro it’s a movie calm down 😂
OMG!! Great movie!! The flight scenes were dope!+
You know a movie is a blockbuster when the majority who have already watched it plans to go see it a second time. Like the old Disney E-ticket ride! Kudos to Cruise and crew, they’ve set the bar high.
Or a third time. Another person watched it 5 times.
absolutely right. amazed.
@@clostridiumgretani9906 watched it in 4dx 5 times with everybody that wanted to go. they all thanked me
Tom Cruise is probably the last of the great movie stars. Aside from some questionable beliefs, he really is the whole package. If this doesn't sweep the Oscars, then they really are completely irrelevant.
100% correct.
It should sweep the oscars for technical and cinematography awards, but surely not for acting.
agreed
*COUGH COUGH* SCIENTOLOGIST *COUGH COUGH* yeah but we never talk about his beliefs now do we?
@@ADcommenter what's ur problem 🤨
This movie was 10/10 . Some of the unbelievable aerial footage I’ve ever seen. Chills
Yea except most external aerial footage was CGI lol..
@@robert7622 The Tomcat, Su 57, and Darkstar were all CGI or some type of overlay but the rest was could've been simply visual effects like what C.W. Lemoine has stated in his channel
@@Justin_GFM So the last 10 minutes was all CGI planes and these guys think its real lol
@@robert7622 It is real for the most part though, is that hard for you to understand?
@@robert7622 how hard is it for you bro they literally flew real planes in both movies not everything can be shot real like crashing s multi million dollar jet
This movie was epic. One of the rare instances where the sequel was just as if not better than the original.
Oh it's miles better than the original.
How can you this is better than original?! Not at all! 😣
@@danieletusa7734 it’s better in terms of the cinematics and the pure work these guys have put in. The realism is second to none. The original top gun was great for its time, it’s the first, it’s nostalgic it’s classic. But honestly this film had such amazingly real scenes
@@danieletusa7734 No it is, but the original is great too. Don’t let the nostalgia glasses blind you, you know it to be true
@@danieletusa7734 it's not that the original are bad. It's great. But this one takes all the potential the original could have and maximise it. The Bombing Run Scene is incredibly satisfying audiovisual experience.
The money shot for me was seeing three F-18's all break the sound barrier in one scene as they were low flying through the snowy mountains. That was just incredible.
Was transonic, not supersonic.
Agreed it was incredible
@@michaelaxtell592but not supersinoc... 🤷🏿♂️
Also only one is real the rest are VFX
As a VFX artist, it’s so cool to see practical used like this. Often people act like there’s a fight between CG and real, but there’s never been one. If real is the best way to capture the shots and it fits the movie, not a single VFX person will complain. Congrats to everyone involved
So damn right sooooo right
There's definitely CGI in the movie, its just some of it they shot with jets that needed replacing anyway for lighting reference etc
How is Tom Cruise still alive! The amount of crazy stunts this man has done, he is more than an actor, he is a producer but also stunt man. What a legend!
He is turning 60 this summer
He is safety concious. A true professional.
@@maidixierekt4601 nah he really isn’t getting old
He is the American version of Jackie Chan.
GOAT
Titanic, Jurassic Park, Avatar changed the game. Now the authentic “real” movie to make a comeback.. how refreshing!
Titanic had massive practical effects btw.
@@MichalToporcer so did Jurassic Park!
I'd say Terminator/Terminator 2 was revolutionary as well. The CGI is better than some movies made today!
No no, Terminator 2 and Matrix are the right movies..
The funny thing is it was actually cheaper nowadays to use practical effect than the incredibly complex (and beautiful) CGI. You just need to take away the danger factor and logistic difficulties in practical effects well mostly the danger. Which considering Tom Cruise is trying to die in every movie he made its absolutely no problem entering the danger zone
The only movie that left me wanting to go back and watch it again immediately after exiting the movie theater😀 best theatrical experience i’ve had. It deserves all the praise it has gotten
Hello are you also one of my supporters out there?
When they launch Maverick off the carrier, that my favorite scene. You feel like you are really along for the ride. You can’t fake the jarring shutter of being thrown into the sky by a catapult.
Say what you want about Tom Cruise as a person, but when it comes to his craft, the man goes ALL IN

Exactly.

I’m so glad they didn’t come out with this during Covid. You have to see this in the theaters. It’s amazing

The roof coming off the guard shack when darkstar goes over was awesome on screen. Can’t believe it wasn’t planned that’s amazing
There’s no such thing as Darkstar so must of been an F-18.

You'd be surprised what old guys can do. Kirby Chambliss flew in the Red Bull Air Races till he was around 60.
It absolutely blows my mind to see how agile and responsive these aircraft are… the amount of technology implemented is astounding.
And these are 27 year old jets, assuming that they are in fact flying superhornets and not hornets. The hornets are even older.
Let me tell you that these scenes look pretty unrealistic to me like you can’t just pull back on the stick and expect the jet to just climb that’s not how things work
This movie is epic in its purest form to be honest.
Watched it last night at a IMAX theater. Absolutely unreal flying scenes. You felt like you were in the cockpit pulling G’s with them. 10/10. The whole theater said “holy sh*t” out loud probably 20 times during the movie.
Is there an IMAX with 5D seats? Would be awesome for watching this movie!
but U weren't inverted
@@annaartemenko9655 Hello are you also one of my fans out there?

Totally awesome in 4DX love it!
Same! It was incredible
That is THE POINT! Karita.
4dx is amazing for this film
It’s been a long time since I’ve been to a movie where the entire audience cheered and clapped. And not just once (after the successful mission) but also at the end they went wild. It was crazy!
Retired Navy Airedale after 22 years this movie made me want to reenlist! Absolutely the best flying scenes of the jet age. Fly Navy!
My uncle served on carriers in WW2 and off Korea. He is sorely missed. Thank you for your service. It means a lot
Finally a blockbuster that looks like actual effort was put in to provide a unique experience for audiences- last time was maybe Fury Road or MI:Fallout
all movies have crazy amounts of work. its just that these have an even crazier amount of work put in.
Dune would like a word
Dune is sitting right there 👀😭😂
@@zombiekiller9503 my bad,Dune is amazing.
@@snowy5628 I love Dune as much as the next guy, but that's not really a proper comparison. It's too effects heavy to be discussed in the same way as Mad Max: Fury Road.
The practical effects in this movie are a stark, stunning contrast to the seemingly endless stream of Marvel-type CGI drivel which Hollywood has been churning out for far too long. With such a glut of CGI, it is rarely impressive now. Top Gun 2 just goes to demonstrate it with an old fashioned effort. The flying sequences are amazing!
yeah they should have just hired a real purple alien instead of using CGI
@@LuisMiguel-on5oe the Original Star Wars trilogy relied on a man with a suit and scale models space planes (basically a toy) instead of the heavy use of CGI in the prequels. We all now which trilogy stood the test of time visually
@@LuisMiguel-on5oe This is called prosthetics, animatronics and make up.
💯
@@LuisMiguel-on5oe that's not the point. As konsinski said, there are some scenarios that *require* CG. But Marvel movies nowadays are just a show of CGI trying to outdo their predecessors
You never feel cheated with a Tom Cruise movie. The production values are always high, and he gives it everything he has. The only thing that’s left is for the Academy to award him an honorary Oscar for making exceptional movies over the course of the last four decades.
Literally held my breath and was on the edge of my seat the whole movie! Soundtrack is excellent!

A wake up call to Hollywood to ditch rubbish CGI sequences and do it for real. Then the rewards will follow

@@paulconway384 this movie was too woke. They sent a woman, a Hispanic, and an African American to the final mission and left the white guy, hangman, in the backseat
@@filthyneutral5801 let's ignore the two white guys who got shot down.
Tom always pushes to the max, even at 59 years old. Age has no limit to Tom. The guy is a freaking legend.
This movie wasn't just a bunch of hype. It's truly amazing. It's not only the perfect sequel to the first one, it goes above and beyond and has some of the best cinematography I've ever seen on film.
This movie is just a time travel back to the 80’s for me. That’s when legend movies were made. And this one will still be remembered in 30 years
This movie will be winning Oscars. Sound, visual effects, and editing are locked, even with Avatar coming out later this year. It'll also minimally get a song and score nom for Lady GaGa.
Overrated.
This movie doesn't have that many VFX as a lot of it was practical, whereas Avatar 2 is almost 100% VFX.
Avatar is just a fantasy cgi, nothing that is real about it

He wrecked the MI franchise though. Rogue Nation and Fallout were pure garbage.
this has to win an oscar or some sort of award. it absolutely has to
Life experience in your line of work is an invaluable resource, it can't be stolen or bought. Tom's experience in making movies has really shown his best work here. Most remasters are terrible but this looks like it's just obliterates the original and sets the bar immensely high.
Tom is a legend. He does not need an Oscar to prove the quality of his work
He was already nominated for 3 Oscars and even if he never wins one for best actor, i'm 100% sure he will get one for Lifetime Achievement.
@@tnightwolf honorary
Tom is a Movie Star not an Actor. There is a difference. Same for Harrison Ford. They essentially play themself in every film, that's not acting. Nothing wrong with that either. They make incredibly fun films.
@@BTBEV3469 facts! and seeing them just be themselves is already so entertaining

Just watched it yesterday overseas when they premier it earlier than the US, this movie is well put together and better than the Top Gun 1 in my opinion. The storyline and endless actions are heart pumping.. watching this at the theater is well worth it
Ummm santikos in America had a screening on Monday

The movie is absolutely wonderful
@@Rubrick23. Yes it is better by far
Tom cruise is a very special soul. Along with that, everyone that was involved in creating this film, did an amazing job. A very special movie was created

Damn a one mission from ace combat took a whole 2 hours, loved it and when the mission started it was so great
Hard mode on bogey dead six
Really makes you appreciate the level of planning that goes into each mission that they do not show in the Ace Combat games. They just give you a mission briefing, a slap on the butt and say "go get 'em", then you're off in your X-02 Wyvern to save the day.
They should have just sent Mobius 1 or the Razgriz to do the work
@@gimmeallurmoney3883 Or The Demon Lord.

I've watched it last Wednesday. The aerial scenes are top notch. I've never seen anything like it before. And the soundtrack! Dang the soundtrack is very nostalgic.
What makes it even better is knowing their facial expressions and grunts and groans are real.

The visuals were matched with a smartly written plot that highlighted how the best of the best would be facing the limits of their ability in a way that was evident on a visceral level to a lay audience. Well done in so many ways.
The script said they were facing their limits. The visuals showed that they were facing their limits. As it should be in film, the script and the screen are saying the same thing.
This film us by far one of the best films I've seen in years! The adrenaline, the dog fight scenes! Man! This film was 🔥
I'm definitely going for 3rd run for this movie. Tom and the crews deserve all the praise for their dedication and my utmost respect for the US Navy for lending their hornets and the real Top Gun Pilots.
See it in theaters!! Everyone was on one hell of a ride the entire time. When it was all done we sat there in a absolute amazement. I’m so sick of CGI. This was just incredible you won’t be disappointed.

This movie is the best movie of 2022 hands down, absolutely great movie start to finish, alot of nostalgia for me, 10/10
4DX IS LITETALLY THE ONLY PROPER WAY TO APPRECIATE THIS MASTERPIECE
This movie was AMAZING! Miles kills it each time he’s on camera, Tom delivers AS ALWAYS and I’d say Glen Powell was also equally charismatic in his role. But the F18s and the amazing scenes they were able to accomplish…I mean just A1. Nothing like a Tom cruise film…gonna probably see it again. Oh yeah…this MUST be seen at a theater
It’s unbelievable, the nostalgia, the emotions, the incredible acting, the story… didn’t disappoint. It must be watched in a cinema!
The flying-sequences are fascinating in this movie.
Can’t wait to see this for the second time in an IMAX theater, this movie is phenomenal!
If only the first filmmakers could see what this artform has evolved to. The capabilities of what we are able to capture on camera is purely amazing.
Easily the best movie I've seen in a long time. Honestly practical effects make movies sooo much better than a lot of CGI and this is proof of that. About to see it for the third day in a row
Cheap movies made in the 70s look better than the Marvel garbage these days.
Interviewer: "So how did you shoot the flying scenes?" Tom: "We flew"
Absolutely incredible film. Saw it Sunday and really wanting to watch it again….and again and again. Superbly executed.
Tom Cruise never disappoints his fans delivering instensed scenes that anyone couldn't imagine that has been done in reality with no editing or greenscreen! He is a living legend. This Movie should be on the Big Screen and deserved to be on the top!!
What is insane is that Top Gun 1 was in 1986, the same year of the movie Labyrinth, in which Jennifer Connelly played Sarah, she was only 14 back then. The staying power of Tom Cruise is legendary, definitely one in a million.
Instant classic to go along with the longtime classic.. and Tom thanking people prior to the film, classy!!
This was the most well done, high energy movie I've EVER seen!!!!
The whole crew should be proud. Watching this in Xtreme screen with the bass shaking your seat gave me non stop chills. Had the classic Top Gun structure but also moved forward with the times. Bravo 👏
Hello are you also one of my supporters out there?
Saw it last night and the crowd clapped and cheered when it finished. CGI just isn’t the same and your brain knows it
They clapped and cheered? Had to be on or near a Naval Base. No sarcasm intended.
So incredible what they did to make this movie. I've already seen it twice in theaters and plan to go again. It's just so entertaining and well done. Literally hits all the right notes. 10/10.
The comeback of the f-14 really made it worth the ticket for me. cherry on the cake.
Absolutely. She's an old bird, but still a beautiful one.
The best action movie that has come out in years, and it’s a sequel that beats the original. Saw it with my boys on the big screen. Action packed, just all around excellent. Must see this in a theater for full appreciation. They even got the aerial acrobatics of the SU down with their directional thrusters. The attention to detail reminded me in a sense of toms work on days of thunder. This is a must watch and one of the best movies I’ve seen in my almost 40 years.
I’m so glad they waited 2 years so it got the justice it deserved. Fantastic
Amazing what a difference it makes to ACTUALLY make the movie, rather than green screen it. Hats off to Tom and the crew for delivering the real deal. 👍
Saw it this weekend & it really was awesome. The storyline & all the jet scenes blew my mind.
Much like “Dune”, Maverick is a film that needs to be seen in a theater
Exactly my thoughts.
The beauty of using practical effects with a healthy amount of CGI used as supportive and nothing more. Infinity War will look pretty silly in a decade or two when the CGI shows its age, because it relies on it so much. Maverick though? Dune? These movies will be timeless.

Yes after Mad Max Fury Road this is the film that sets a higher bar.

@John Carlson yes, but its still way less cgi than most directors would have used.
Tom Cruise an unmatchable inspiring Legend. Respect to all the other actors and the entire film making crew. Can't wait to see on big screens.
The story is king and Tom did a great job in bringing this sequel to justice. The camera work- superb, the cast and acting was well chosen, and the realism of the planes flying and pilots were as close as you can get!!!
The fact that Tom cruise actually was coaching them before the Movie, just like in the movie is just amazing. Tom is truly one of the greatest to ever do it. He basically is Maverick IRL too.
Best film ive seen . Had everything emotions , Dopamine , romance , action , real action Awesome .
Technology is astounding these days but there really is a huge difference between CGI and reality. It makes the movie really earn your hard earned money all the more.
Just saw this at the theatre. Their efforts were definitely worth it. You can see the obvious discomfort in the actors/actresses faces as the planes were manuevering and dog fighting.
Absolute quality, Tom is a legend. Must see for all movie fans.
Films that capture as much in camera as possible will always be superior.
Watched it at the Regal 4DX seats. Amazing experience as the seat shakes and moves while the pilots are flying. Amazing acting, footage, and storyline.
Shoutout to the aircraft maintainers who worked this detail. Couldn’t have done it without them.
Legit one of my most memorable movie watching experience in the last 2 years at the very least. Tom Cruise is a different beast altogether.
This movie was absolutley incredible
