Tom Cruise is heading back into the danger zone as production begins on the sequel to Top Gun.
The Cruiser posted a picture of himself in front of a fighter jet with the slogan "Feel the need", harking back to the 1986 smash hit movie's motto about US Navy fighter fighter pilots and their need for speed.
