Not too late to give Rick a brief cameo in Maverick: Top Gun II
It doesn't ned to be much. But everyone remembers Slider fondly from the original film, and how cool would it be to get a glimpse of the great Rick Rossovich on-screen again!
Just add him in a scene already. It could be as arbitrary and inconsequential as having him be at the same bar as Mav....noticing him, and asking the waitress to send him over a drink--then, giving him a nod. Just something quick and cool like that. Fans of Top Gun would LOVE it!
C'mon Tom, make it happen.
