Top Gun: Maverick has overtaken Titanic to become the seventh highest earning film at the US domestic box office.

The sequel to the iconic film has generated $662 million (AED2b) since it was released.

Thanks to an intense press tour and word of mouth, the Tom Cruise-led film toppled the James Cameron flick, which earned an impressive $600 million (AED2b) domestically back in 1997.

Maverick has grossed around $1.288 billion (AED4b) worldwide, officially making it the highest-earning film of 2022.

Top Gun: Maverick is also close to clipping Avengers: Infinity War at the domestic box office, which earned a staggering $678 million (AED2b) in ticket sales.

Top Gun: Maverick even got the tick of approval from one of the greatest filmmakers of all time, Quentin Tarantino, who called it a ‘cinematic spectacle.’

About Top Gun

After more than thirty years of service as one of the Navy’s top aviators, Pete “Maverick” Mitchell (Tom Cruise) is where he belongs, pushing the envelope as a courageous test pilot and dodging the advancement in rank that would ground him. When he finds himself training a detachment of TOP GUN graduates for a specialized mission the likes of which no living pilot has ever seen, Maverick encounters Lt. Bradley Bradshaw (Miles Teller), call sign: “Rooster,” the son of Maverick’s late friend and Radar Intercept Officer Lt. Nick Bradshaw, aka “Goose.”

Facing an uncertain future and confronting the ghosts of his past, Maverick is drawn into a confrontation with his own deepest fears, culminating in a mission that demands the ultimate sacrifice from those who will be chosen to fly it.
