Top Gun: Maverick is soaring to new heights on Paramount+, becoming the most-watched film to ever debut on the streaming service domestically.
The film landed on Paramount+ on December 22 and quickly surpassed Sonic the Hedgehog’s previous premiere weekend viewership record by 60%. Paramount Global did not disclose specific viewership numbers for either film.
In anticipation of Maverick‘s debut on the service, audiences refreshed their memories on the original Top Gun movie, which saw viewership increase by about 400%. It was apparently a Tom Cruise-inspired weekend, as even the Mission Impossible franchise saw a 140% bump in viewership.
“We are thrilled to see a continuation of the film’s massive record-breaking success by becoming the #1 most-watched movie premiere on Paramount+,” said Tanya Giles, Chief Programming Officer, Paramount Streaming. “We continue to benefit from the highly anticipated theatrical hits from Paramount Pictures that come to the service delivering fans a new way to continue to watch and re-watch their favorite movies.”
In addition to the U.S. Top Gun: Maverick also debuted on Paramount+ in Canada, Australia, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, the UK and Latin America. It will be available in South Korea and France in 2023.
Top Gun: Maverick has crossed the $1.4B mark worldwide, making it one of the top-grossing films of all time.
Produced by Paramount Pictures, Skydance and Jerry Bruckheimer Films, the film stars Tom Cruise, Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, Glen Powell, Lewis Pullman, Charles Parnell, Bashir Salahuddin, Monica Barbaro, Jay Ellis, Danny Ramirez, Greg Tarzan Davis with Ed Harris and Val Kilmer.

Tom really didn’t want to make another Top Gun and [director Tony Scott’s suicide] made it even less likely. I’m sure for him, that’s probably another reason why he wouldn’t ever consider going back. But I pitched the idea of this story being a reconciliation between him and Rooster set against this mission that would take Rooster into this very dangerous situation, that they’d end up together across enemy lines, having to resolve their differences and work together to get back home. As soon as I pitched that idea, I could just see the wheels in Tom’s head start to turn and all of a sudden, he had a very emotional reason, a hook back into this character, and a reason to come back, because I think in his mind it was like a one in a million shot that we would be able to get it right. He kept saying, “Joe, we got to hit a bullet with a bullet.” And that was his line on this movie. And so, I certainly heard that in my head every day as we were making the film. I think everyone who worked on this film felt like the bar was very high because we all were fans of the original.

For the sequel to the 1986 Top Gun, director Joseph Kosinski gave editor Eddie Hamilton the challenge of compressing more than 800 hours of footage into a movie just over two hours. Top Gun: Maverick follows Maverick (Tom Cruise) as he returns to the Top Gun flight school to prepare a new class of pilots for a dangerous mission. His job becomes more difficult when his late partner’s son, Rooster (Miles Teller), joins the class. Once the exteriors of the jets were shot, Hamilton needed to search through the footage to piece together the final product, which involved a lot of cutting to create tight sequences packed with action.
