Variety are reporting that seasoned comic book movie writers Ashley Miller and Zack Stentz have been tasked with writing the script that could potentially bring Maverick back to the big screen.



Ashley Miller and Zack Stentz, who collaborated on the script for "X-Men: First Class," are in negotiations to pen the sequel to "Top Gun" for Paramount and Skydance Productions.
Jerry Bruchkheimer and David Ellison are on board to produce. Paramount and Skydance declined to comment.

Plot details are nil, as Miller and Stentz have yet to write a script. And no news yet on Tony Scott or Tom Cruise's invovlement, but the addition of Miller and Stentz to the mix shows that Par is serious about moving forward with the project.


Were you a fan of Top Gun? Did you see X-Men: First Class and Thor? Can these guys give us a script worth revisiting one of the best movies of the 80's? Share your thoughts below.

No word as yet, but I think its unlikely - last I heard it would be a cameo at most.

The story that was thrown around was about unmanned aircraft - kind of goes against the whole point of Top Gun though doesn't it?

Haven't you read the Top Gun comic @ Super Wolverine...



I know its not strictly comic related but I thought as these guys wrote two of the more well received comic book movies of this year it was worth reporting.
