Top Gun: Maverick
Charlie ’s absence in the highly - anticipatedTop Gun : Maverickcan be excuse by Maverick ’s apparent professional stasis . Top Gun : Maverickfinally arrives in cinemas on May 27 , but not all of the originalTop Guncharacters will be returning in the new movie . While Maverick ( Tom Cruise ) and Iceman ( Val Kilmer ) are confirmed to be back , Kelly McGillis’sTop Gunheroine Charlie , Maverick ’s love sake in the original movie , wo n’t be making an appearance in the sequel .
harmonise to its secret plan synopsis , Top Gun : Maverickwill have a darker tonethan the originalTop Gunand will see the serial cover the character flaws that made Maverick such a reckless turncoat in the early movie . These same timber appear to have held him back from promotion throughout his career sinceTop Gunended , which might explain why he and Charlie never work out .

A possible account for Charlie’sTop Gun : Maverickabsence could be because Maverick stay a police captain despite over thirty years of serving . While there is nothing ill-timed with working as a Captain , the continuance of Maverick ’s time in the Navy and his status as one of its best test pilots mean that he should , theoretically , have been offer numerous promotion from this position in the decades since the terminate ofTop Gun . However , much likeTop Gunfocused less on real warsand more on Maverick ’s internal conflicts , Top Gun : Maverickis set to illustrate how Maverick has been emotionally trapped in his 80s resplendency days since the end of the original motion-picture show , something that is made apparent in his position as a skipper . There ’s a sentiency that Maverick is stuck in sentence inTop Gun : Maverickand has not been able to move on from the inept young recruit he was inTop Gun , which makes it apprehensible that Charlie found it out of the question to keep their relationship working .
It would be heavy for any role to bide in a stable family relationship with a turncoat like Maverick , and since the years between movie did n’t see Cruise ’s character settle down and become more mellow , it is little surprise that he and Charlie did n’t work out . The cocksure arrogance that made Maverick wizard inTop Guncould well become grating before long , and whileTop Gun : Maverick ’s superb early reviewspraised Cruise ’s carrying out , many of them note that there were sides of poignancy to the once - unstoppable antihero in the sequel .
As such , it would make sense forTop Gun : Maverickto reveal that Cruise ’s grapheme lose his first love due to his inability to grow up , something reflected in his lack of professional ontogeny . The same need for speed that made him resistless to her could reasonably have driven Charlie away when Maverick failed to mature in maturity , lead him alone to look at his choices . This humbled , older version of Maverick is likely to be the one thatTop Gun : Maverickis present in the sequel , reflecting on the choice that drove out Charlie and his conclusion to never square off down professionally or in person .
