Glen Powell almost bankrupted by Top Gun

Glen Powell has been one of the standout stars of the “Top Gun” sequel, where we saw him portray Hangman and share the screen with some franchise icons, including Tom Cruise, who plays Maverick.

Thanks to his role, it is rumored that the young actor received a generous salary. However, he nearly went broke due to Cruise’s decision to delay the release of “Top Gun: Maverick” in 2020.

The star confessed to The Hollywood Reporter that he was nearly bankrupt because of the delay, as instead of opting for a streaming release, the lead actor wanted to postpone the film for two years to ensure box office success.

In an interview with the outlet, Powell opened up about his financial situation at the time and admitted, “I had never made a significant amount of money from a film, including Top Gun, and I was draining my bank account to the point where my accountant was telling me, ‘This pandemic can’t last much longer‘”.
