    Dude had a lot of health problems. Top Gun was his last hurrah, and it was difficult for him. It’s why his screen time was so short, and why they ended up honoring him with a funeral scene. If I remember correctly, he died while the film was being made, so they added that scene last minute.

      Top Gun was his last hurrah

      For a minute I thought you meant the original Top Gun, and I was thinking “well Batman Forever kinda sucked, yeah, but you’ve obviously never seen Tombstone” then I realized you meant the “Maverick” movie. I never watched it and didn’t even know he was in it.

        He was for a brief moment.
