The words "Rizz" and "Gyatt," commonly used in contemporary slang, have gained significant traction in popular culture. While many believe these terms are modern inventions, their origins can actually be traced back to a pivotal moment in the 2022 film Top Gun: Maverick. In a surprising twist, these words were first used in a line by Tom Cruise's character, Captain Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, which has since gained notoriety.

In the film, there is a memorable scene where Maverick is seen talking to his old flame, Penny Benjamin, played by Jennifer Connelly. In an attempt to rekindle their romance, Maverick confidently declares, "Imma' rizz Penny and she'll accept." This line, though brief, sparked curiosity and amusement among fans and has since become a notable reference point in discussions about the movie.
