Following the fan appreciation event and well-deserved victory lap this weekend, Joseph Kosinski's Top Gun: Maverick has finally set a release date to watch the film from the comfort of your own home and to own the physical media later this year. After soaring above and beyond the $1 billion mark at the box office, and seizing a top spot from the long-reigning Titanic, you will be able to digitally purchase the legacy sequel later this month on August 23. However, you will have to hold out until November if you want to snag the 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray versions of the film.

Top Gun: Maverick sees Tom Cruise reprising the role of Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, which he originated in the 1986 film Top Gun. Over thirty years after the tragedy that occurred in the first film, Maverick is called back to TOPGUN to train a new team of graduates, which includes Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw (Miles Teller), the son of his late friend "Goose." The film's high-flying success is due in part to the awe-inspiring stunts and action, as well as the feel-good and upbeat experience it delivers. In addition to breaking box office totals, audiences have felt the need for speed and made the legacy sequel Paramount’s highest-grossing film ever and Cruise's highest-grossing film in his entire illustrious career.

With the upcoming release of Top Gun: Maverick, audiences will be treated to over 110 minutes of bonus content, including behind-the-scenes moments with the filmmakers as they capture the spectacular aerial sequences, push the limits beyond Mach-10, and of course, you'll be able to watch the cast's intense flight training program that got them in shape for some of the insanely cool moments in the film. With Top Gun: Maverick marking such a momentous occasion in not only the history of Paramount, but Cruise's personal career, the bonus content also features Cruise discussing his passion for aviation as he pilots his own aircraft and his incredible career at the 75th Cannes Film Festival. And Lady Gaga fans will be thrilled to know that both her music video and OneRepublic's will be included in this release.
