of the saga James Bond to the committed documentary Our planet, the British royal family is a movie buff and likes to let it be known. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge therefore did not hide their pleasure in responding to the extraordinary invitation of Tom Cruise.
Megalomania
A Londoner for a few months already, the legendary actor got wind of Prince William’s passion for Top Gun. The American, accustomed to excessive gifts, therefore took care to organize a preview of Top Gun : Maverick for Lady Di’s son and his wife. As the British press reports, this royal session took place in Leicester Square in the capital, entirely privatized for their close guard for the occasion. Sophie de Wessex, but also the princesses Beatrice and Eugenie were also present at the exclusive screening of the film. “They were the first to see the film. Tom greeted them himself and told them that he hoped they would enjoy this sequel, which he loved shooting. Then he left them alone”we said across the Channel.
The action film will then be unveiled at the Cannes Film Festival on May 18. This 75th edition will also pay an exceptional tribute to Tom Cruise for his entire career.
