Apparently Tom Cruise is working on a Top Gun thirdquel and a Days of Thunder sequel. We could feasibly get Hans back for both, since he did Top Gun Maverick and the first Days of Thunder. He also didn’t like his music on DOT, so this could be an interesting opportunity to try again with 30+ years of extra experience.
