Val Kilmer, actor known for “The Doors” and “Tombstone,” dies at 65
Val Kilmer, the acclaimed, brooding actor who starred in a string of blockbuster hits in the 1980s and 1990s, has died at the age of 65.
Kilmer died Tuesday night in Los Angeles, surrounded by family and friends, his daughter, Mercedes Kilmer, said in an email to The Associated Press.
Val Kilmer died from pneumonia. He had recovered after a 2014 throat cancer diagnosis that required two tracheotomies.
The New York Times was first to report on Kilmer’s death.
A unique talent, Kilmer was praised as an acting chameleon who took on varied and challenging roles, and the results were often memorable. Beginning with “Top Gun” alongside Tom Cruise in 1986, he turned in one iconic performance after another — able to transition effortlessly between leading man and supporting roles.
RIP – I’m Your Huckleberry
Best film overall that he was in. Tombstone (1993) what do you think ?
