DC Readers: Attend A Free Early Screening Of ‘Top Gun: Maverick’

Do you feel the need for speed? We’re happy to offer our DC readers the chance to get back into the cockpit by attending a free early screening of Top Gun: Maverick! Tom Cruise is back in the air, joined by Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, Glen Powell, Jon Hamm, and more. The film is directed by Joseph Kosinski.

SYNOPSIS:After more than thirty years of service as one of the Navy’s top aviators, Pete “Maverick” Mitchell (Tom Cruise) is where he belongs, pushing the envelope as a courageous test pilot and dodging the advancement in rank that would ground him. When he finds himself training a detachment of TOPGUN graduates for a specialized mission the likes of which no living pilot has ever seen, Maverick encounters Lt. Bradley Bradshaw (Miles Teller), call sign: “Rooster,” the son of Maverick’s late friend and Radar Intercept Officer Lt. Nick Bradshaw, aka “Goose.”

Facing an uncertain future and confronting the ghosts of his past, Maverick is drawn into a confrontation with his own deepest fears, culminating in a mission that demands the ultimate sacrifice from those who will be chosen to fly it.

The screening takes place on Monday, May 23rd at 7:00pm at AMC Georgetown IMAX. If you’d like to attend, simply RSVP at the Gofobo site here. Please remember all screenings are first come first served and you’ll need to arrive early to ensure seating. Enjoy the show!

Top Gun: Maverick opens in theaters on May 27th.
