Val Kilmer’s death at the age of 65 has come as a rude shock to his fans and the industry fraternity. The veteran actor passed away from pneumonia and was battling throat cancer since 2015. Some of his close friends and former co-stars from Hollywood also took to their social media handles to pour their tribute to him.
Josh Brolin took to his Instagram account to share a throwback post with Val Kilmer with a heartwarming message. He also paid tribute to the late actor’s love for Mark Twain. The post read, “See ya, pal. I’m going to miss you. You were a smart, challenging, brave, uber-creative firecracker. There’s not a lot left of those. I hope to see you up there in the heavens when I eventually get there. Until then, amazing memories, lovely thoughts. #valkilmer #marktwain.”
Actor Matthew Modine took to his X account to state, “RIP Val Kilmer. If it wasn’t for our chance encounter at the Source in 1985, I may never have been cast in FULL METAL JACKET. Thanks, Val.”
