Val Kilmer, the enigmatic and fiercely committed actor whose magnetic screen presence brought unforgettable characters like Iceman, Jim Morrison, and Doc Holliday to life, has died. He was 65.
Kilmer passed away Tuesday night in Los Angeles, surrounded by loved ones, his daughter Mercedes confirmed. The cause was pneumonia, following a decade-long battle with complications from throat cancer, which had left the actor with a tracheotomy but never dulled his artistic spirit or fierce intelligence.
