Tom Cruise continues his victory lap with one of the best years he’s ever had as an actor, all due to the decision to delay his long-awaited sequel “Top Gun: Maverick” until after business got to some semblance of normalcy during a pandemic. “Maverick” is a bonafide box office phenomenon, not only as the biggest movie of the summer and year domestically, but as of this weekend, it has now passed the 659.3 million grossed by James Cameron’s “Titanic.”
That number for the long-time record holder includes a number of re-releases after the 600 million made in its initial 1997 run. Considering that “Titanic” has long been Paramount Pictures’ highest-grossing release of all time, the studio probably won’t mind that it now has two movies in the all-time Top 10. “Titanic” went on to win 11 Oscars including Best Picture and Best Director for Cameron.
“Maverick” has consistently been making history, first...
