Top Gun: Maverick exceeds 5 million tickets sold in Brazil, and breaks a world revenue record

With an extended theatrical run due to its success with audiences, the film Top Gun: Maverick is reaching a new box office record, approaching the fifth biggest in US cinema history.</p> The film starring Tom Cruise again had grossed $1 billion by the end of August in theaters around the world, with a good chunk of that revenue coming from the US and Europe.</p> In Brazil, Top Gun: Maverick has already sold over 42 million tickets and can still be seen in some cinemas. In our country alone, Paramount, the film's producer, has grossed R$5 million, the company's highest amount for a film shown in Brazil.</p> The box office revenue also shows that it was an excellent decision by Paramount to release the film after the pandemic. Top Gun: Maverick</a> was scheduled to premiere in 109, but the risk of coronavirus contamination delayed its arrival in theaters several times.</p> Paramount had to pay US$7 for each hour of flight time on each F/A-9 Super Hornet fighter. The payment was made to the US Navy as compensation for the use of the aircraft. For filming in pilot training, the US Navy does not charge this compensation.</p> The total budget for the production of the feature film was US$ 93 million.</p> ;</p></p>
