“Top Gun: Maverick it’s a totally real proposition,” said Teller, who says the year-long grueling production didn’t use any green screen. The long-awaited sequel, as director Joseph Kosinski said, has kept the commitment to have real stunts for the sequel.
In statements to Men’s Journal, Teller commented that “there is no green screen in a movie. Every take, every trick was the result of the work, the real sweat, that we all put into it.”
Rooster follows in his father’s footsteps and is a new recruit to the Top Gun show in the sequel. Teller explained, “The production took place over the course of a full year, which was definitely the longest shoot I’ve ever been involved in.”
Knowing from experience how demanding aerial sequences would be in Top Gun: Maverick, Cruise arranged for his co-stars to undergo flight preparation. Thus, the Whiplash actor also said that he spent three months in this type of training before the start of filming, beginning in a Cessna plane before moving on to the L-39 Albatross, a jet training aircraft, and finally flying in F -18 to build your tolerance for extreme G-force and practice breathing techniques.
What to expect from ‘Top Gun: Maverick’? The movie starring Tom Cruise opens on Friday, May 27
Teller has touched on Tom Cruise’s incredible work ethic, how everyone trained like him for the movie, his reaction when he found out they would be shooting a shirtless beach scene like the original film. “Saw Top Gun: Maverick at CinemaCon and is one of those rare Hollywood blockbusters that dominates every aspect of movie-making. The performances are fantastic, the action sequences are incredible, and it actually improves on the original film with the way it adds to Maverick’s story.”
The American actor Miles Teller (1.85 tall) and born in 1987, has stated that he was nervous about being part of Top Gun: Maverick as he had “big shoes” to fill when the superstar Tom Cruise chose him to play the son of a beloved character in the franchise. He has also said in various agencies that he was “uneasy” about joining the sequel, which was staged on a large scale, as he has always focused on doing “small scale things” in his career. “I was a little worried about getting into something that was set up to be so big. I’ve been in a couple of big movies, but for the most part I’ve tended to do some smaller scale stuff. So I was nervous about lending myself to that world, but it’s something I was also incredibly proud of and really honored to be a part of.”
In the sequel, Teller, also known for some recent hits like The Spectacular Now, Bleed for This Y Only The Brave, bears a strong resemblance to actor Anthony Edwards, who played Goose in the original film. “I mean, when Tom Cruise casts you to be his co-star in a movie and to play the Goose’s son, those are big shoes to fill. So I felt like if Tom thinks I’m the right guy, then I think I’m the right guy too.”he told PTI.

The action takes place more than 30 years after the events of top gun, tape directed by Tony Scott. There Maverick is seen training a group of Top Gun graduates, including Rooster, for a highly complicated mission of destruction.
Teller said he was inspired by the superstar’s “work ethic” and relentless pursuit of perfection. “Tom never stops working and he’s never really satisfied with the good or the great. He spends a lot of time on these movies that you see him in. And his work ethic was something that I found really inspiring.”, he added.
For Teller, the new installment of Top Gun is another film in which he could go further with his character, something he did previously with whiplash. “I think in my life I’m pretty laid back. So these movies and certain performances give me the opportunity to go to the extreme that you can’t go to in life. You can do stuff through these scenes like you’re going to do in real life, people would be like, ‘Oh my gosh! This guy is so dramatic or this guy is too intense. So I tend to gravitate towards those roles. I love it when the stakes are high, I really enjoy movies that aren’t afraid to push the envelope a little bit.” commented the actor.
