Tom and Val will forever be linked as rivals Maverick and Iceman from 1986’s “Top Gun” — roles they reprised in 2022 for the long-awaited sequel to the fighter pilot flick, “Top Gun: Maverick.”
Val’s health issues prevented him from working much in the last few years … and, ‘Maverick’ is actually his final film role. Producers had to use A.I. to recreate his voice, which he’d lost due to throat cancer.
