Kelly McGillis or Meg Ryan in this?
Is Tom the only original cast member?
shareChecking IMDB, doesn't look like it. I'm surprised no Viper, Jester or the "rubber dogshit out of Hong Kong" guy either. But Ed Harris is a good choice to fill that role.
shareStinger - James Tolkan, probably more famous as the Principal from Back To The Future.
Personally i think the funeral scene is gonna be Stinger, Viper or Iceman which might explain why 2 out of the 3 are not in the movie, just a theory which is probably way off.
Have you seen Kelly McGillis lately?

We can't all age like Tom Cruise. Well we could.. but then we'd have to join scientology.
sharePlease, have you seen Val Kilmer lately? Equal opportunity aging and loss of hotness.
shareGood point but he still looks better than Kelly. She had a role on Z Nation and I didn't recognize her. She looks like someone's aunt from Huntington, WV.
shareVal Kilmer has been ill lately. Probably still recovering.
shareHonestly, while I love Val, I'm not sure it was the right decision to bring him back for this one.
I was at a Comic-Con recently that he attended to sign autographs for and he hid himself away behind a curtain so that the only people who could see him were people who paid for autographs. This is not normal procedure and made me think that he must be really self-conscious about his appearance.
She moved to my old hometown, Key West, FL, and apparently went into the restaurant business.

This former A- list mostly movie actress who had quite the run back in the day before coming out (which caused a huge run of people being quiet about their sexuality) was passed over for a chance at a big sequel because the lead actor wanted to be seen opposite someone young. Plus, they hated filming with each other during the original, so that was never going to happen. Kelly McGillis/Tom Cruise ("Top Gun: Maverick") (‘Top Gun’ star Kelly McGillis claims being ‘old and fat’ is reason she wasn’t asked to be in sequel) https://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/movies/ny-top-gun-star-kelly-mcgillis-claims-reason-she-wasnt-asked-to-be-20190730-pdsmkkwmvzfkfcw44p32kp47k4-story.html
Have you seen Meg Ryan lately?
shareMeg Ryan has apparently been "Other Darrined":

Jean Louisa Kelly, who turns 47, will appear as Carole Bradshaw (played by Meg Ryan in the first film) in Top Gun: Maverick.
Yeah, aside from Maverick himself only Kilmer is set to reprise his role of Iceman from the first film. Kilmer confirmed this himself (even Tom discussed having him back in an interview). How big or small his role will be remains to be seen, but so far no one else from the original has been confirmed to return for this sequel.
The possibility of anyone else from the original returning? While I don’t expect it, I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a cameo or two. Nah.
