What's left behind the scenes
- Tony Scott planned to direct this film, but committed suicide the day before his scheduled meeting with Tom Cruise.
- Tom Cruise’s involvement in the film was due to the use of real airplanes and flights, rather than computer graphics.
- The film features a P-51 Mustang aircraft from World War II. The aircraft is owned by Tom Cruise himself.
- Nicholas Hoult and Glen Powell were considered for the role of Bradley Bradshaw, but Powell impressed Cruise, the producer, and studio executives so much that he was cast in another role that was specifically expanded for him.
- The film's release date, originally scheduled for July 12, 2019, was postponed due to the complexity of the visual effects and aerial filming.
- No one expected the roof of a structure next to Ed Harris’s character to lift off during Maverick’s (played by Tom Cruise) flyby, but it happened, and that take was used in the film. Considering that 'Darkstar' was just a mock-up and therefore couldn’t fly, a real airplane was used for the flight and filming, after which its image was removed from the frame and replaced with the image of 'Darkstar' using digital technology.
- The use of green screens and digital technology in the film's creation was minimized at Tom Cruise's insistence, and even close-ups of the aircraft's dashboard were filmed during actual flight in a real plane. This is why a significant portion of the actors involved in the film had to undergo prior training to perform under substantial G-forces.
- According to Miles Teller, three out of six of the new actors were vomiting daily during the filming of the flight scenes.
- The actors playing the pilots had to film themselves, including turning the camera on and off, paying attention to their own makeup, setting up the lighting, and remembering the sound. At times, the director had to sit for hours at the edge of the runway waiting for the actors to return with the footage. The footage was reviewed, notes were made, and the actors had to return and reshoot another take.
- According to Miles Teller, the actors in the film had to choose their own call signs. He personally chose the call sign “Rooster” because his father, played by Anthony Edwards in Tony Scott’s (1944-2012) “Top Gun” (1986), had the call sign “Goose.”
- After intensive training on the ground, the actors, along with professional pilots, began to make flights, each lasting 90 minutes, several times a day, and while in the air, they were to remember to perform all the actions that on the ground during filming are always performed by other members of the film crew (checking lighting and makeup, turning cameras on and off, etc.). This meant that cinematographer Claudio Miranda, who usually uses the sun as the main light source, had to study route maps and weather charts every day in order to properly configure the cameras before takeoff.
- The beach football scene had to be reshot because Tom Cruise didn't like the first take. According to one of the actors, Glen Powell, Cruise demanded a reshoot about a week after filming the first take, so the actors had to get back in shape, as they were playing with bare torsos, as in the first film, and needed to look perfect, since a similar scene from the first film had long become iconic.
- In the scene where Tom Cruise and Jennifer Connelly's characters sail into extremely windy weather, the actors performed the scene themselves, without stunt doubles.
- Miles Teller was cast as 'Hangman', with Nicholas Hoult and Glen Powell also vying for the role. All three were sent to Tom Cruise’s home, the lead actor, to determine who would be the best on-screen partner for Cruise. Ultimately, Powell was given another role in the film – he had impressed Cruise, producer Jerry Bruckheimer, and staff at 'Paramount Pictures' and 'Skydance' so much.
- Cinematographer Claudio Miranda, director Joseph Kosinski, and Tom Cruise worked closely with the Navy. To prepare the actors for filming in the roles of pilots in two F/A-18 Hornet fighter-bombers, six cameras were installed, and piloted by actual pilots. All equipment that could be removed from the aircraft cockpits was dismantled to install digital '6k Sony Venice' cinema cameras with ultra-lightweight lenses. The cameras needed to be installed so as not to interfere with ejection, powered by their own batteries to avoid draining the aircraft's energy, and able to withstand impacts, vibration, and 7.5 G-forces. The filmmakers were able to capture not only the actors' actions, but also the effect of maneuvering during turns, which was reflected on their faces.
- Tom Cruise approached Ridley Scott with the question of whether he would like to direct the film, because the first film in 1986 was directed by Scott's brother, Tony. Ridley Scott once directed Tom Cruise in 'Legend' (1985), but now declined the offer. According to Ridley Scott, action films like this, with a fast-paced plot and constant tension, are not really his forte. After that, he compiled a list for the actor of directors whom he thought might be interested in such a proposal.
- Almost 800 hours of footage were shot for the film. Director Joseph Kosinski suggested in an interview with the monthly magazine “Empire” that they shot as much material for this one film as Peter Jackson shot in total for the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy films (2001, 2002, and 2003).
- Admiral Tom Kazansky, played by Val Kilmer, dies of throat cancer. During filming, Val Kilmer himself had throat cancer, and it had progressed so far that he was even unable to speak. This is why his character prints his lines and orders, and only speaks three lines aloud. Even these lines, however, are voiced by a speech generator programmed to reproduce Kilmer's voice.
