A 'Top Gun: Maverick' Fan Just Found An Audio Easter Egg, And Even Tom Cruise Is Impressed

  • last year
The story of 2022, at least when it comes to movies, has to be the atomic success of the legacy sequel "Top Gun: Maverick," and the hold it continues to have on audiences of all ages. The film set box office records during its staggering summer run. And now that it’s available on home video, eagle-eyed fans enjoying repeat viewings are able to pick up on nods and homages to Tony Scott’s original film… sometimes even catching the attention of Pete “Maverick” Mitchell himself, Tom Cruise.

"Top Gun: Maverick" director made sure to include a number of references to the original "Top Gun." But this one went unnoticed by many (if not all), until Twitter user @Msmegalodon pointed out that a scream that was let out during the volleyball scene in the original movie was clipped and used in "Maverick." And the movie’s editor, Eddie Hamilton, shouted her out for it.
