Val Kilmer, Batman actor, dead at 65

Actor Val Kilmer, best-known for his roles in Batman Forever and The Doors, died in Los Angeles at the age of 65, the New York Times reported late on Tuesday.

Kilmer succumbed to pneumonia, his daughter Mercedes told the New York Times. He was diagnosed with throat cancer, which required two tracheotomies, in 2015 and later recovered.

The Los Angeles native made his film debut as rock star Nick Rivers in the 1984 movie “Top Secret!” Which was written and directed by the comedy team that created “Airplane.”

It wasn’t until two years later that Kilmer was launched into superstardom for his role as Lt. Tom ‘Iceman’ Kazansky in Top Gun, the highest-grossing movie of 1986.

So sad and my heart goes out to his family. Loved him in Top Gun, but Tombstone is my favorite…….he will always be my “huckleberry!”💕 Throat cancer is no walk in the park, I’ve been there and just hoping all theses “cures” that have been withheld from us, will soon be released, so people don’t have to experience the awful chemo/radiation protocol that many go through! 🙏

okay cancer and to think it didnt have to be that way with new natural cures but he apparently had some ds attachment... usually throat is deadly so he lived longer than he should have.
