Val Kilmer lost his battle in Los Angeles earlier this year. At the time of his passing, he was 59 years of age. Physicians confirmed the cause as a serious disease. Kilmer began his acting journey in 1991 with small early parts. His first major role came quickly when he starred as Jim Morrison in The Doors. Four years later, he made a lasting mark as Doc Holliday in Tombstone. Back in 1989, he took on Batman in a cartoon. His final film paired him with Al Pacino in Heat. Even now, audiences rediscover his work through TV reruns.
