Earlier this month, reports confirmed that a third installment of the Top Gun franchise is in the works at Paramount. With the success of Top Gun: Maverick, which hit theaters in 2022, fans have been eagerly anticipating the possibility of another film. In a recent conversation with Josh Horowitz on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, director Joseph Kosinski addressed whether he would be interested in returning for Top Gun 3.
While the conversation took place before the news of the third movie's development, Kosinski didn't outright confirm his return as director or provide specific details about the status of the project. He shared his thoughts on the possibility of another sequel, stating, 'As you're about to go to sleep at night, the brain dreams and you can't help but think of if there was another one, what would that story be? What's the emotional reason to bring Maverick back? What's the challenge?'
