Tom Cruise Terrifies James in 'Top Gun' Fighter Jet!

"Top Gun: Maverick" star Tom Cruise picks up James for a once-in-a-lifetime trip to the desert where Tom pilots James in a vintage fighter plane for the afternoon. And just when James thinks he's survived, Tom informs him the two will be going up again — this time in a jet fit for modern aerial warfare. There isn't much doubt Maverick will survive the experience, but will James? "Top Gun: Maverick" comes out only in theaters May 27!

This guy fly's jets, helicopters, drives race cars, does his own stunts. whether or not you like him you have to admit, this guy is the real deal and has balls of solid titanium

This makes me love Tom Cruise. His sense of humor and perfect delivery in this entire segment is amazing.

[NoPulseForRussians]

The fact that Cruise is actually a pilot just makes the Top Gun franchise that much better. What a friggin' legend.

Tom's given James Corden something we could of only dreamed of doing! My younger brother was a pilot
of which I lost to Covid a year and a half ago. Every time I hear a small plane above our little farm I have a
tear in my eyes. My brother Dan would've loved this video! Thanks Tom for taking us along!

As a pilot, I can tell you that the amount of time it takes to get to that level of comparability in that caliber of plane is immense. He has obviously spent an extraordinary amount of time and money flying with instructors and on his own. Good for him to pursue that passion...

I’ve been a pilot for 42 years and I’m very impressed with the skill that Tom showed up. Congratulations. Keep on you’re doing a great job.

Tom really looks like he’s in his element here. More relaxed than I’ve seen him in regular interviews lol

[thehunterstruck]

One of the reasons Tom Cruise is one of my favorite actors. This video was AWESOME. Would love to see Tom Cruise start an aviation YouTube channel!

Tom really looks like he’s in his element here. More relaxed than I’ve seen him in regular interviews.

[ryanpozen]

No matter what you think of him, the fact that he wants to give the audience a real deal experience of his action sequences is why we all go to his movies

[Vejur]

Tom Cruise, makes you feel like you haven’t done enough with your life.

He’s that amazing.

[souniert]

I absolutely CRACKED up so many times!!!! “Goose dies”!

[beastieboy]

Tom is on another level in this life. Absolutely inspiring.

[haseebniazi]

Imagine being so good at everything that flying a jet is another skill. What a legend.

Massive props to the film crew on this, it all round looked amazing, the ground scenes could easily fit into a movie and the Air scenes were even better

[dianerathgeber]

I just love the way James runs. He’s so precious.

[mcshortnfat]

This is the best interaction I've ever seen him have with a talkshow. There wasn't any obtrusive questions, solatious gossip. They genuinely had good fun together. It was awesome.

[alessiomarin]

I have huge respect for Tom Cruise. Nobody pushes themselves through the training required to become a fighter pilot merely for money. He genuinely cares about producing very high quality movies for his audiences.

[Mistardmuster]

I knew Tom Cruise was a pilot but now after watching Top Gun 2, learning about the training course he designed for the actors, and watching this I can tell he really is a pilot's pilot. It's obvious he's passionate and cares about aviation immensely.

[davenock]

That is no doubt some sophisticated piloting of two very different high caliber aircraft. Mad respect to TC for that. Like icing on the cake that is his vast movie career.
