Tom Cruise has made an unexpected flyby at San Diego Comic-Con to debut the first trailer for Top Gun: Maverick.

The audience in the 8,000 seat room went wild for Cruise Thursday afternoon. He closed out what had been billed only as a panel for another throwback sequel,Terminator: Dark Fate.

Cruise says all the flying in the trailer is real and that Top Gun: Maverickis a love letter to aviation.

The filmmakers worked with the Navy for the film, which is currently in production.

Top Gun: Maverickis expected to hit theaters next June. Val Kilmer, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, Glen Powelland Miles Teller co-star.

Cruise said Comic-Con was the perfect place to premiere the trailer. He shot the original some 34 years ago in San Diego.
