Top Gun: Maverick Star in an interview with Access Hollywood shared the advice that Kobe Bryant gave him before he passed. He even stated how the NBA star is similar to Mission: Impossible star Tom Cruise with regards to his work ethic.

“Kobe’s big thing for me was just like ‘Miles do epic s**t.’ Whenever he would kind of write something to me that is that he ended it with. [He] is similar to Tom [Cruise], with his work ethic and everything, but if you want to put your stamp on something you really need to give it everything you got and you need to outwork everybody else.”

Finding out you were a fan of Whiplash blew my mind, I couldn’t fathom being in your orbit. You were a hero of mine and I’m forever grateful for moments like this and more we shared over these past few years. Thank you for your kindness and your spirit.”
