Zack Sharf Tom Cruise’s long-delayed “Top Gun: Maverick” is finally set to blast off in theaters later this month, but making a follow-up to his classic 1986 action drama was not always of interest. A 1990 interview Cruise gave to Playboy magazine during the publicity tour for “Born on the Fourth of July” has resurfaced from Gizmodo and finds the A-list star calling the idea of making a “Top Gun” sequel “irresponsible.” Cruise was responding to the interviewer calling “Top Gun” a “Nintendo game and a paean to blind patriotism” in comparison to “Born on the Fourth of July.”“Some people felt that ‘Top Gun’ was a right-wing film to promote the Navy. And a lot of kids loved it.

JUST IN: Elizabeth Taylor: Furious husband almost shot star over torrid affair"I remember knocking on the door and this lady came and I said 'Hello, can I have Richard Burton's autograph?' 'Oh, you're Dick Hopkins son aren't you?'"So I went down the passageway and heard this 'bzz' and there was Richard Burton, shaving with an electric razor, and he had a T-shirt on and blazing blue eyes. "Hopkins recalled Burton asking him if he spoke Welsh, to which he replied no, leaving the legend to declare: "Then you're not a true Welshman.
"He continued: "[Burton] looked through me with those eyes and his wife, Sybil, who was eating breakfast, said 'Oh, come on Richard, just sign the autograph'.

I said, 'What match is that?'"He said, 'What do you mean what match? Don't you know that Wales are playing France? You're really not a true Welshman!'"So, he signed the autograph and I walked back out of the house and back to my father's shop, and as I was walking down the hill, his grey Jaguar went past - to see a Jaguar in Port Talbot in 1955 was something.
"And Richard and Sybil were inside, and Sybil waved at me and Richard looked at me and I looked back at him, our eyes met and I thought 'One day, I want to be like that'. "Both men make up half of an unprecedented set of actors from Port Talbot, which includes Michael Sheen and Rob Brydon.
