Died of Pneumonia

His Daughter confirmed

Ahh I'm really sad to hear this. Bless.

He has a place in my heart from Top Gun days.

….ahhhhhh, he’s had ill health for much of the last years, hasn’t he…a great and very watchable actor…Val Kilmer…:love:…

Really sad news.
I like his films lot.

R.I.P.

Ah no, he had a rough few years though poor guy

yes, throat cancer :(



i knew him from Batman Forever, and also the second Simon Templar actor



he wasn't looking that great recently tbh



very sad, RIP

RIP Top Gun is one of my all time favourite movies along with the sound track

He has... He looked much older than he was, I remember thinking he hadn't aged well. Sad to hear though, he made some great films.

I've never seen top gun, but enjoyed him in Top Secret and The Doors, I thought he was great as Jim Morrison.

Gone to soon.

…I think one of his most praised movies/roles was Tombstone/Doc Holliday and I do recall that he was excellent in that…it’s a long while since I watched it though, so I might give it a re-watch soon…

Omg! RIP Val :(

I loved him in Batman Forever.

R.I.P.

It's funny, despite him being such a huge name and so present in my mind as a movie star, the only two movies I really took notice of him in were Batman Forever and Heat. He was a decent Batman, too. Certainly better than George Clooney and Ben Affleck imo.

I should get around to watching that Doors movie he and Oliver Stone made.

I was just about to say before i got to the last line of your post, what about The Doors!? Imo that was his best performance

It's even more egregious because I quite like the Doors and Stone's JFK is one of my favourite movies. :facepalm: For shame!

Well, your mission is quite clear, in memory of Val you need to get that watched pronto!

Oh, I will now. And also The Island of Doctor Moreau and the documentary they made about how much of a nightmare him and Brando were during the making of that. :laugh:

I always thought he was a great actor

He had Jim Morrison down to a tee. I was a massive doors fan back in the day

I was a big fan as a teen in the 90's too :love:

…another excellent Val Kilmer movie is Kiss Kiss Bang Bang with Robert Downey Junior and Michelle Monaghan …it’s generally an overall superb watch…

…he’s one of those actors who comparatively didn’t star in so many movies as many others but he made a huge screen impact in the ones he was in so its always felt to me that he’s been on the screen more than he has…

I haven't seen it but I'm going to see if I can find it somewhere

Aw that's sad. He was a brilliant actor.
