Legal trouble brews for Paramount Pictures as actor Barry Tubb, known for his role as LTJG Leonard "Wolfman" Wolfe in Top Gun, files a lawsuit against the production company. Tubb alleges unauthorized use of his likeness in the 2022 sequel, Top Gun: Maverick.

In the complaint filed in California, Tubb asserts that Paramount Pictures utilized his image without permission in Top Gun: Maverick. Specifically, he points to a scene featuring his character alongside familiar faces from the original film, including Maverick, Iceman, and Goose. Tubb contends that the studio altered the original photo, originally a behind-the-scenes shot from the first movie, thus nullifying any prior agreements regarding its usage.

According to Entertainment Weekly, Tubb's legal action seeks compensatory and punitive damages, with a request for a jury trial. Paramount Pictures and lead actor Tom Cruise have yet to respond to the allegations.
