This summer, Paramount Pictures will bring the 25th Anniversary Edition of Top Gun to Blu-ray. In the role that cemented his status as one of the most famous movie stars of all time, Tom Cruise (Collateral) plays Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, a hotshot fighter pilot put to the test when he joins the Navy's Top Gun program.
For this new release of the film, Paramount has repackaged their 2008 Blu-ray edition, adding only a digital copy. All of the technical specifications are identical to the older Blu-ray - presented in its original aspect ratio of 2.39:1, the new Top Gun Blu-ray is remastered in 1080p with both an English 5.1 Dolby TrueHD audio track and an English DTS-HD Master Audio track.
In addition, the supplemental materials of the 25th Anniversary Edition remain the same. They include:
Commentary by producer Jerry Bruckheimer, director Tony Scott, co-screenwriter Jack Epps, Jr., and naval experts
Danger Zone: The Making of Top Gun Six-Part Documentary
Multi-Angle Storyboards with optional commentary by Tony Scott
Best of the Best: Inside the Real Top Gun featurette
