Fox News
Paramount was hit with a copyright lawsuit by the family of the author behind the original story used for the “Top Gun.” Star Tom Cruise is not being sued personally.
A spokesperson from Paramount Pictures told FOX News Digital, "these claims are without merit, and we will defend ourselves vigorously."
The lawsuit was filed by Shosh and Yuval Yonay on Monday in California. The Yonays are the heirs of Ehud Yonay, the author of the 1983 article "Top Guns." The storyline for the original "Top Gun" film was based off the article.
