Los Angeles, June 2 - Skydance and Paramount Pictures' pandemic-delayed "Top Gun: Maverick" is on a 'marry me' run at the domestic (North America) box office.

After scoring the biggest Memorial Day holiday weekend of all time with $160.5 million, the Tom Cruise-led actioner earned another $16 million on Tuesday, which is the biggest non-Marvel Tuesday in the month of May in North America. It helped the movie to reach $176.6 million in just 5 days.



Directed by Joseph Kosinski, "Top Gun: Maverick" has surpassed its predecessor's lifetime domestic collection of $180 million, on Wednesday. Not only "Top Gun's" (1986) lifetime total, but the Wednesday collection of Top Gun 2 also takes it past "Mission: Impossible's" $181 million to become Tom Cruise's sixth-biggest domestic grosser of all time.

"Top Gun: Maverick" is likely to become Cruise's biggest domestic grosser by the second Sunday. Currently, his "War of the Worlds" (2005) is the biggest grosser for him with $234 million in North America. At the worldwide box office, the latest blockbuster has scored over $320 million through Tuesday.

The film stars Tom Cruise as Captain Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, a test pilot, alongside Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, Glen Powell, Lewis Pullman, Ed Harris, and Val Kilmer. Cruise and Kilmer reprise their roles from the first film, and the film is dedicated to Top Gun director Tony Scott, who died in 2012.
