One of the best aspects of the classic”Top gun“It is the visual style of the film, which is due to the legendary filmmaker. tony scott. Sadly, Scott passed away long before they made “Top Gun: Maverick.” But according to Tony Scott’s famous director brother, Ridley, the people behind ‘Maverick’ were interested in keeping it in the family.
