Bradley Bradshaw (Miles Teller), call sign: ‘Rooster,’ the son of Maverick’s late friend and Radar Intercept Officer Lt. Nick Bradshaw, a.k.a. ‘Goose’.” The description continues, “Facing an uncertain future and confronting the ghosts of his past, Maverick is drawn into a confrontation with his own deepest fears, culminating in a mission that demands the ultimate sacrifice from those who will be chosen to fly it.” The new trailer shows off more of the film’s story, as well as new footage of the film’s flying sequences, which saw the actors filmed in real-life two-seater fighter jets using special camera equipment to capture the thrills.
