Clear the runway. Because six long months after storming international theatres, Top Gun: Maverick starring Tom Cruise and Miles Teller is hitting Paramount+ to park up in those stacked streaming queues.
While the undisputed #1 blockbuster of 2022 has been available to stream for some time now through video-on-demand on platforms such as Amazon Prime Video, now, youโll be able to relive the epic thrills of Joseph Kosinskiโs sequel without having to fork out any extra dosh on top of your Paramount+ subscription.

BHโs official position on the flick is no secret, especially considering the fact we characterised the entire experience as โthe most fun youโll have in cinemas this yearโ; though it certainly isnโt without a few flaws.
But itโs safe to say watching Cruiseโs eponymous fighter pilot sustain however many Gs while inverting over a snowcapped mountain will serve as the perfect mindless escapism we all seek after a rigorous session of Christmas consumption โ both in terms of food and beverages โ and well beyond Silly Season.
The synopsis for those whoโve yet to experience Top Gun: Maverick is as follows:
After more than 30 years of service as one of the Navyโs top aviators, Pete โMaverickโ Mitchell (Tom Cruise) is where he belongs, pushing the envelope as a courageous test pilot and dodging the advancement in rank that would ground him. When he finds himself training a detachment of Top Gun graduates for a specialised mission the likes of which no living pilot has ever seen, Maverick encounters Lt. Bradley Bradshaw (Miles Teller), call sign โRooster,โ the son of Maverickโs late friend and Radar Intercept Officer Lt. Nick Bradshaw AKA โGoose.โ
