Speaking to TMZ , the song's original performer Kenny Loggins revealed he spoke to Tom Cruise about recording a new take on the song. Loggins is particularly interested in tag-teaming it with a fresh act.“I met Tom Cruise on [The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon], and I asked him that question," Loggins said, talking about doing a new Danger Zone song. "He said, ‘Of course, we have to use Danger Zone.’So I’m hoping to do it, maybe as a duet with a young act. I’d love to work with, well, there’s young and then there’s young. We have some feelers out to some pretty cool rock acts.”Loggins did not provide any further hints as to who this other performer might be. The sequel will reportedly feature Val Kilmer's Iceman , with the story exploring "the end of an era of dogfighting and fighter pilots." Last week Cruise posted an on-set photo for Top Gun 2 Top Gun: Maverick opens in theaters on June 12, 2019.
