>
> Mission Impossible star Tom Cruise confirms he is involved in the forthcoming Top Gun sequel.

> Mission: Impossible star Tom Cruise has confirmed he is involved in the forthcoming Top Gun sequel.

> Plans for a follow-up to the hit 1986 film were announced last year, but it was not known if and how much the star would be involved.

> Speaking to MTV, Cruise said he was in talks with director Tony Scott and would go ahead provided they could “find a story that we all want to do”.

> “I hope we can figure this out to do it again,” he said.

> Scott directed Cruise in the first Top Gun film, which propelled him to fame as fighter pilot Maverick.

> The Jerry Bruckheimer-produced film, which also starred Kelly McGillis and Val Kilmer, was nominated for four Oscars and won the best song Academy Award for Take My Breath Away.

> Cruise said: “I said to Tony, I want to make another movie with him. He and I haven’t made a film since Days Of Thunder.”

> "Tony and I and Jerry, we never thought that we would do it again. Then they started to come to us with these ideas and I thought, wow, that would be what we could do now.

> “We all want to make a film that is in the same kind of tone as the other one and shoot it in the same way as we shot Top Gun,” he added.

> It had been rumoured that Cruise’s character would return in the sequel as an instructor for a new class of Top Gun recruits.

> But when asked what his role would be in a new film, the actor said: “I don’t know - we’re working on it.”

> Cruise will next be seen on screen in a fourth Mission: Impossible film, Ghost Protocol.
