Top Gun: Maverick (2022)
Penny’s Porsche 911
Just as real-life Porsche ownership conveys a message about the owner’s personality, the use of Porsches on-screen can suggest a great deal about the characters portrayed as driving them. This 1973 911 S, one of two slightly different cars used in the blockbuster Top Gun: Maverick (2022), belongs to the character Penny Benjamin (Jennifer Connelly). Although the vehicle appears only briefly, its mere presence helps to communicate Penny’s temperament—that of a confident, free-spirited adventure lover who is a perfect match for the headstrong Captain Pete “Maverick” Mitchell (Tom Cruise).
