M:I7 delayed as well.
Do we have an inkling why both have been pushed back? Cluttered schedule or just Delta anxiety in the US?
My first assumption was that Tom wants his full slice of the box office and the studio wants him to have it too.
And Jackass Forever too! The Paramount Push to 2022.
Hollywood Reporter saying as much about the Box Office money..

The date moves come as concerns over the coronavirus pandemic and its delta variant continue to hamper theater attendance and make putting tentpoles into cinemas a risky proposition for studios. Paramount, like other studios, regularly consults with epidemiologists on decisions such as this, and the studio is hopeful the box office will recover in 2022 when these films are now set to open.

This made me laugh. What a dystopian world we live in now!
FFS, we could be looking at a posthumous release at this stage!
interestingly concert tickets are selling in record times at the moment in the States.
Today I learned a gosling is a young goose. They missed a trick with the casting.
Best thing in Footloose remake
Tom Cruise in an introduction to an American Football match this evening.
Combined with Top Gun Theme and Clips of the new film.
Enough to have me wanting another trailer, I'll say that much!

Top Gun: Maverick x Porsche
Celebrate America HooRah energy with a German sports car 😁
Wikipedia's telling me this coat $152 million; now under the Hollywood Accounting rule of 2x the budget to break even - plus maybe some extra lost for the various delays - that's north of $300 million worldwide before this film makes money.
I'm dead curious to learn how this does; assuming the film's not a piece of ****, whether (Cruise + Nostalgia) - CoVid can pull a crowd. This still opening in China? Given previous issues over having a Taiwanese flag in the trailer (the horror).
I'd say there's an additional element in there of Cruise gaining a heap of experience building on top of a franchise with Mission Impossible.
Staying somehow grounded to the original feel and yet building on it doesn't sound easy for sure.
Plus, there's got to be a weight of expectation from the fans of the original.
Anyway.. I've just googled for a theme for top gun maverick and listen to two versions.. no pressure to the producers 😁
Top Gun Maverick Theme - Epic Version
Top Gun Maverick (SoundTrack)
I'd be surprised if it lost money and I really doubt it will pull in a billion. Its the one film this year where ill be saying "son were going to the cinema!" so yeah to the nostalga and lots of dog fighting jets and cool aircraft carrier scenes, whats not to like!!!
