It’s now been 4 months since Top Gun Maverick hit theaters and it’s still playing around the world. The film produced – and starring Tom Cruise – is a global success, we’ve known that for a while now. Last week, it topped $700 million on US soil alone, making it the 5th-highest-grossing US movie of all time, surpassing some big MCU movies like Avengers Infinity War and Black Panther. behemoths. In France, success is also present with today 6,485,173 admissions on the counter, which makes it the greatest success of Tom Cruise’s career in France. Until now, the record for Tom Cruise was previously held by Rain Man released in 1989 in France with 6,475,615 million admissions. Top Gun Maverick therefore exceeds Rain Man but also Minority Report, The Last Samurai, War of the Worlds and even Mission Impossible! Obviously, all eyes are on the upcoming Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part 1 slated for summer 2023, and so the promo campaign has already kicked off with some ever-incredible Tom Cruise stunts shared across the internet.
To celebrate this new Tom Cruise record in France, Paramount has decided to organize a marathon to chain the two films in a row, the first Top Gun from 1986 having been restored in 4K. These double sessions will be organized in most cinemas in France. The operation will kick off on September 28 at the Grand Rex in Paris.
The special evening with #TopGun & #TopGunMaverick will take place on September 28 in #GrandLarge and 4k restored version!
And the price is the price of a normal seat! To (re) see without moderation ?
