The Good Place actor Manny Jacinto has spoken about his Top Gun: Maverick dialogue being cut, explaining that “Tom Cruise is writing stories for Tom Cruise.”
Jacinto, recently seen in Star Wars spin-off series The Acolyte, was cast as one of the fighter pilots in training in the big-budget sequel alongside Miles Teller, Glen Powell and Lewis Pullman. The Filipino-Canadian actor underwent “superhero” training but when he watched the film, he found that all of his dialogue had been cut and he was reduced to a few background scenes.
