Top Gun 2 is coming, Tom Cruise has confirmed that the sequel will begin filming. This can only mean one thing, it’s time to get everybody back together.
Ever since Cruise broke the news of Top Gun 2, there’s one person that we needed to hear from before anybody else.. his co-star Val Kilmer.
Would he be up for starring in the sequel? That answer is a firm yes, Kilmer posted his willingness on Twitter.

With Iceman in for the sequel, we’d like to request that he keep this t-shirt on at all time during filming. It’s fun to think that he may have been wearing that under his all of his clothing in the 80s…
