[El Muerto]

Survived cancer but it ended up being pneumonia that took his life. Lost a legend.

 

[Xellos]

RIP. Loved his movies.

 

[Doom85]

He looked in rough shape in The Snowman and they even had to ADR (poorly) his voice due to his throat cancer, last film I saw him. 65 is too young, but at least he's at peace now. My condolences to his loved ones.

Val Kilmer, best known for movies such as 1986's Top Gun and 1995's Batman Forever, has died. He was 65 years old.

His daughter, Mercedes Kilmer, told The New York Times he died of pneumonia on Tuesday, April 1. He was diagnosed with throat cancer in 2014 and later recovered, she added.

 

[LaughingStock]

I grew up watching his movies. He was so charming. May he rest in peace.

 

[Northeastmonk]

I too grew up watching his films. This was an iconic movie cover whenever you went to Blockbuster back in the day.

I did a search and nothing came up. Mods plz delete.

EDIT: The OP was on my ignore list, that's why I did see anything in a search. I guess I should refrain from trying to post breaking news from now on, LOL.

[cormack12]

RIP Madmartigan, you were a real one

 

[a'la mode]

His final scene in Top Gun: Maverick was really poignant, and a true sendoff to an absolute legend.

 

[Neff]

Terrific actor. Underrated even. RIP

RIP.

 

[Gp1]

RIP Awesome actor, so many memorable roles.
The documentary about his life is very good too.

"Say when."

 

[SJRB]

Oof, that's rough news to wake up to.

Amazing actor, should've gotten an Oscar for Doc Holliday.

He was a big part of my youth; Top Gun, Heat, Tombstone. All great roles.

RIP to an absolute hero.

 

[Forsete]

RIP legend.

 

[drganon]

Rip. Val was good in pretty much everything, even when the film itself wasn't that great.

 

[Hudo]

RIP

Still the best Batman movie, imho.

Sad day. He was a great actor. RIP.

 

[Great Auk]

And we were just talking about Heat in the other thread yesterday!

Man that's sad. I loved him in Willow, and he was so good in Real Genius. He had a bunch of iconic films as others have mentioned here under his belt.

RIP
