Oh and btw, Jennifer Connoley is my new crush. She'll be yours too.
I saw a few Tweets over the past few days claiming that Maverick was about an old guy getting the young girl and asking why Kelly McGillis was replaced by Jennifer Connelly.
The thing is, Connelly is 51 and Cruise is 59. That's certainly an appropriate age set.
McGillis, OTOH, is a 64-year-old, out-of-shape lesbian.
Kelly McGillis never did it for me in the first one. At first glance she looked OK in 86 but she wasn’t right for the part. The should have cast a hotter, better known, sexy woman the first time around.
