It’s one of the year’s most-hyped films, and now its got the box office earnings to prove it

Top Gun: Maverick has hit big screens right around the world, collecting a whopping $154 million in the U.S alone, as the country’s long weekend wraps up.

The all-American action adventure is bathing in the glory of solid reviews, star power and a huge level of nostalgia.

Lead by Tom Cruise, the film is the actor’s highest-grossing debut in his 40-year career, and his first to soar past 100 million.

The film had a hefty $170 million production budget, so the opening weekend was a pleasant splash of cash, especially after spending tens of millions spent on promoting the movie to audiences worldwide. 

War of the World’s is Cruise’s second biggest opening, sitting at $64 million for its 2005 premier weekend.

Cinemas are reporting audiences over 40 years old turning out in force to watch the Top Gun sequel.

It’s believed the film’s positive word of mouth will help reach younger audiences, who were not alive when the original “Top Gun” opened 36 years ago.

The two-year wait has already started to pay off since the film has been rapturously reviewed.

It has a 97% on Rotten Tomatoes and an “A+” CinemaScore.
