The radar officer, who replaces Goose as Maverick’s partner in the last act of the film, went a little unnoticed, but the actor, Tim Robbins, has become a very important figure in the Hollywood industry.

Robbins played Andy Dufresne in the acclaimed 1994 film The Shawshank Redemption. Ten years later, he would win the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role in Mystic River. Robbins has also worked as a director in several films, such as Bob Roberts and I Still Believe; the latter earned him a nomination for Best Director at the 1996 Academy Awards. His most recent project was 2019 series Castle Rock.
