- After COVID-related delays, “Top Gun: Maverick” has finally hit movie theater screens, and the buzz around the new film is nothing short of amazing. Fans love the return to the classic days of 80s action flicks, and Tom Cruise has been praised for his return performance as Pete “Maverick” Mitchell. But there is one very special cameo in the film that has fans buzzing.
Val Kilmer was diagnosed with throat cancer a few years ago, and his fight with the disease cost him his voice. But it was incredibly important for Tom Cruise to have his friend reprise his iconic role as Iceman. Using impressive technology, the movie’s technical team managed to give Kilmer his voice back. Here’s how Val Kilmer really feels about his “Top Gun: Maverick” role.

How did you feel about his role in the movie?
Absolutely ecstatic that he was included, and HOW they did it was touching and respectful.
I cried.:(
That scene was powerful. Makes you think.
They handled it absolutely perfectly.
In a show about yanking-and-banking and blowing things up, it was perfectly toned. Somebody started cutting onions next to us.
I'm so glad that they included Val Kilmer as Iceman, his scenes were incredibly touching and heartwarming.
It gave Maverick that extra push that he needed
indeed!
That scene was powerful
@@matthewbaxter2435 So that scene made you cry more than once it was that powerful?
That scene added so much emotional weight to the movie, it was a special moment for sure.
You gotta love how Tom insisted Val be in the movie, that's respect there. After so long they really didn't have to include him or anyone else from the original but glad they did, great scene.
But he dumped all over mcgillis and Ryan
@@rosco25 Shame about Ryan but the story works out better with rooster if she's not around. And Mcgillis, well in the end, as shitty as it sounds, doesn't look anything like she used to. At least Connelly is playing a established character in the story even if we don't see her in the original movie.
@@rosco25 would you choose mcgillis to play a roll you hypocrite? Val Kilmer rol was limited because of his health problems, mcgillis is waaaay out of shape. Tom Cruise is not the only one to make the decision. Im sure the director had his saying also!
@@immunetowesternlies8697 and val is in good shape? They could have put kelly with a personal trainer pre production and dyed her hair. But no. Cut her completely out
@@rosco25 There's literally no reason for McGillis to be in the sequel. A man like Maverick was never going to marry her, and she would not be involved in the mission the film features.
The scene between Maverick and Iceman was definitely worth the price of admission. Having one of the principal characters (other than Maverick of course) return was worth it and seeing the friendship enduring the decades was special.
Not gonna lie, I had a tear but then the cockiness they both share just made the bromance so much stronger!
It's a shame that Kelly wasn't even invited
I agree and couldnt say it better. that part was just so special. Its an excellent movie, arguably one of the best ever made and best sequel as well.
@Jason Frawley yep I agree with all that
@@jayenglish6631 Seriously! such a heartwarming moment!
I love how Top Gun Maverick created Val's role. Because everything make sense. He's Iceman, he was destined to be an admiral. And seeing how both Ice and Maverick matured and developed their friendship is so heartwarming. Still, the question is... "who is the better pilot?" lols I love that scene.
😆👌
Let’s not spoil this post 😂😂😂
Maverick is
This is a good moment, let’s not ruin it.
@Jason Frawley I agree
Val Kilmer is an absolute treasure of cinema and an even better human being
He was a little out there in Island of Dr. Moreau but Love his Doc Hollyday and he's the only version of Morrison I really know. Take care of yourself kids, you don't know how long you're stuck in that body, you don't want it wearing out unnecessarily. Shoot, the interview shots of Cruise in this video is the first time I've seen him lookin over 40.
Er... Have you heard much about his history of on set behaviour?
I'll just start with - stubbing a cigarette out on a crew member's face.
There's a lot more.
He also put his family through hell by refusing medical treatment of his throat cancer for a year! He ended his own career.
He's actually just a mediocre actor and a horrible human being lol... looks get you very far in Hollyweird
@@キラキラくりくり頭 WOW. Did you see this yourself? If not, do not say that.
It was hard seeing an actor I grew up watching struggle like that but I’m glad he was in it. I think they did him justice, he was admiral of the pacific fleet for Christ sake. FYI, this movie is fantastic. Watch it immediately.
It's even harder to watch a close loved one I grew up with a similar struggle, {mouth cancer}, like that and not live past 64. Don't get me wrong, I love Val, have for years. I'm simply saying that I can strongly relate to the struggle he's been through. I honestly hope Val has gotten past the worst of it and that he only continues to get better. I'll definitely be watching this film! Stay strong, Val! 💖💖💖
I plan on going to see it either today or tomorrow.
Yes it is
@smellyfinger - re: "for Christ sake..." 1. Had NO IDEA Val Kilmer was admiral of the pacific fleet, due to the sake of Jesus Christ. 2. TopGun Maverick has religious overtones ?!?
@@warriormanmaxx8991 life of the party spotted
Val was robbed of the Oscar. His Doc Holliday in Tombstone is the best I've seen.I have watched the movie at least fifty times.
Yep! It was as if he was the real Doc Holiday.
@DolphinsWIthIgloos your a daisy if you do
Agreed!
He wasn't robbed at all
AMEN
I’m not afraid to say I shed a tear or 2 during Val’s scenes 😢☺️
You and me both!
LMAO
He was amazing even in that small part. A very emotional scene with both characters
It was a short scene, but not a small part. Bravo to him for delivering.
Very true
agree!
Cried my eyes out - fantastic how they paid off the friendship. Ice really was mav’s wingman for the rest of his life. The whole movie was really heartwarming.
@@theRealDavidn Yep totally even 5 days later im still thinking about the movie and even when i went for run i had the top gun main theme on my headphones lol
Val brought the heart part of the movie, for sure.. There was some with Goose's son, of course.
But the Iceman helping Mav when he, we needed it most, moved me the most.
..........."let him go". The most profound 3 words in the movie.
John 3:16 NIV
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 🙏!
@@reclusiarchgrimaldus1269 what does that have to do with the movie
Bradley Bradshaw/Rooster had what it takes to be great.
Pete Mitchell/Maverick shouldn’t hold his friend Nick Bradshaw/Goose’s son back.
Bliglum
That scene was the BEST part of the movie. I actually teared up. The nostalgia and character depth from the original Top Gun was what brought the heart and soul into the new one. They nailed that part of the movie. How they implemented Ice's role was so perfect.
Jeff
I’ve been a fan of Val Kilmer’s for so long, and thought he was completely snubbed by the industry for his great performances in The Doors and Tombstone.
I’ve been rallying for him to have a comeback, and to see him take part in this incredible project that is Top Gun: Maverick, is so gratifying!
And, I loved The Saint. I wish they had a sequel back in the day, he was awesome in that movie!
@@christyjakelpatrick9130 I loved that movie too and I was so hoping they’d create a franchise out of it.
tomb stone raised the bar high, i still watch this movie from time to time.
2 great movies
He did an Excellent Job On Tombstone !!! ❤️
Kilmer is really underrated and often forgotten, definitley deserves a place in the spotlight
His performance as Doc Holiday was great. I can’t think of anyone else playing him
Under Batman
People often overlook "The Saint" in which Val really showed his skills. How many times does he change his character in that movie?
He's one of the best
Oh I think anybody who knows anything about movies would say he's "rated" just fine.
The scene with Iceman definitely worked beautifully and was very heartfelt. They worked in his real life battle with tremendous effect. Wouldn't have been the same without him ✈
I can't be the only one to wonder how hard it must have been for Val to watch this movie (spoiler) because of the funeral scene, knowing that his cancer battle was the same as what did in Iceman. His scene with Mav was so touching because of the real friendship that Val and Tom have. When the hugged it out it wasn't just Iceman and Maverick, it was about the actors themselves as well.
@Adventure West Right, I totally understand that,..but not many people get a preview of their funeral.
They look so fucking old now! Val is in bad shape! Just sad
@@stevenjeffrey4637 A preview of their funeral!
A thought provoking line indeed.Of course characters die and get honoured in the movie[Charles Xavier and Tony Stark type]But that is fictional.This was close to reality.
There is a short documentary series called-My Last Days.You can check it out.It is good.And I will surely see the documentary about Val KIlmer.
@@stevenjeffrey4637 Val kicked Cancer in its ass he faced it the same way Holliday faced his TB sadly Doc wasn't meant to win that battle but Val did but both faced it like the bosses they are
@Adventure West, agreed. I just lost a damn close friend to the big C, 2 months after he was diagnosed.
The admiration, appreciation, and respect Val Kilmer’s fans have for him are all off the chart. I can’t even count all the great roles he has played over the years. Tom Cruise insisting that VK be part of the sequel is also pure class. TG2 could not have ever materialized without Cruise, and we are all glad he used that leverage to insist on VK’s involvement.
So glad Val was able to reprise his role as ice man! Wouldn't have been the same movie without him. He may have had a small scene but it was a very beautiful and touching scene full of emotion. Val is a wonderful actor and an even better human being. I have nothing but love, appreciation, and respect for him. 🙏
Val is great actor never gets the credit he deserves.His one scene in top Maverick was majestic
We all knew that Iceman had the attitude and the skills to make it big in the Navy. But the reunion between him and Maverick added the final ingredient to the character, which was heart. The scene was very moving, and I couldn’t help but shed manly tears.
I’m so glad he came back for this movie. It was excellent, and Val did great. It’s amazing how someone can have zero spoken dialogue and still convey everything necessary for the role. Just goes to show we need more representation of people with disabilities! I love it when I see people using sign language, etc, in big movies these days.
No, it shoes Val Kilmer is a great actor...
He had a bit of spoken dialogue.
@@Genkimark according to the video, it wasn't actually him speaking.
@@waltersobchak8080 no what?
@@kbanghart I'm not explaining myself. You get it, or you don't.
I am not going to lie, the scene with Mave and Ice brought a tear to my eye..
As did the Missing Man flyover to me.
You werent alone brother.......
The nailing of eagle on his coffin too
Me too...even the second time I watched it.
I, as well. More than a single tear. I was welling up through the whole scene.
His presence in the film brought absolute joy to everyone I believe. When Mav told him not to ruin the moment, I laughed with tears.
Same
Top Gun INCREASES US NATIONALISM!! Wonderful! Something the USA has been lacking for a very long time, all thanks to the evil democrats. Now with this movie is release, Nationalism will increase, like the way it should be! All other nations has A LOT of Nationalism, except the USA. Nationalism will help this country.
Caaaan relate.
I, as a top gun fan, nearly cried
His presence in the film didn't touch me at all because I didn't know the actor had been sick and his career had stopped. So I just thought the makeup was really bad and wondered why they put Iceman in this unrecognizable state.
The way they weaved Iceman into the story was such beautiful writing, it has emotional weight, and actually is a source of motivation for the protagonist, and not just a glorified cameo scene
The moment I hear the first music and the bell toll, I had tears in my eyes. Everything about it tipped its hat to the original and was magical for me. I was ten years old again for two hours. Thank you Tom and Val, I'm going again this weekend.
People do not realize that scene made a huge impact of the movie and solidified Maverick finally letting go. I wont say for spoiler alert. It really completed the topgun movie overall and left a chapter closed for everyone to cherish
Juan Carlos Top Gun Maverick was shit from a plot standpoint. Too many pushed points. The action was fun enough but overall its a shit film as far as script goes.
@@eddieizzard7359 i think we paid $20 to see this movie. If you think you can make a better topgun movie let me know and we will spend $20 to go see your version.
A good friend of mine just saw the flick and recommened it. Think I'll go see it afterall.
@@lavrentichudakoff2519 It's a very good movie! My wife and I actually think it's better than the 1st. Not to take anything away from the 1st movie though. So much more action in the new movie. From start to finish its intense!
@@eddieizzard7359 you have lost your mind! Seriously! You must have a boring life.
The documentary Val had me in tears. He’s an extraordinary man and his kids are amazing. Jack did a great job and it was cool to see where Val got his start. If you haven’t seen it I highly recommend it.
Can you recall where you watched it? I haven't had luck finding it.
We had to stop after 20 min. It was just impossible to understand him and no subtitles was a fucking shitshow!
@@CrazyPalidin57 me too please
@@CrazyPalidin57 Its free on Amazon Prime with a subscription btw just watched it and it was marvelous!
Val Kilmer's scenes, while comprising just a small part of the movie, provided the true emotional weight and impact to the movie. Fantastic job by both actors.
much like Carrie Fisher's return to Star Wars, very emotional.
When you're so good they want you to act even without your voice. A legend!
Love
Live action actors are so much more than just their voice.It is quite beautiful.
Great sequel! So glad they included "Iceman"...wouldn't have been complete without him. God Speed!!!
Steve
You can tell how much the industry respects Val Kilmer, he deserves every bit of it
Look up his behaviour while making Island of Dr Moreau
@@キラキラくりくり頭 Look at how everyone was behaving on that set. Kilmer's hardly alone in that regard with that production.
@@gonzostrangelove6107 Dr. Moreau killed his career bc he was trying to out-asshole Marlon Brando. It was just the two of them ruining the film set.
I enjoyed how, after many Val Kilmer references by the main characters and many references to a never-seen detective over the entire series, the final episode of the Psych series featured Kilmer as that detective and bewildered that the guys from the eponymous, fictional Psych agency were saying good-bye to him. Kilmer excelled at even that small role.
@@gonzostrangelove6107 he was the same way with Batman Forever. He’s usually an ass.
It was great seeing Val on the big screen again. They handled the Iceman story very well.
Man, Val had so many good roles that were influential in pop culture growing up in the 80's and 90's. I watched Val, great movie fyi, made me cry a little, but still a great story about a great person.
top secret is bloody hilarious
Val is, and I can't state this enough, a LEGENDARY actor. Vals performance in the 2nd film was warming to the soul. Bravo
Val...a great actor
Val is the best ! I’m glad he was in Top Gun 2 he played a great roll!
This movie was touching. I could feel Iceman presence through the text messages. He is Maverick best friend and also his rival
The scene broke my heart. I've been worried about Val for quite a while, I'm so happy that he was able to beat the terrible throat cancer. It really showed that Tom's got a heart when he insisted Val be in the movie or else. Honestly the part with Tom and Val was heartbreaking and very well done. I wish Val could have had a bigger part but regardless I was very happy to see him in the film Val Kilmer had always been an actor and person I've always enjoyed watching on the big screen. Stay healthy Val, the world is a better place with you in it. God Bless Ice Man.
Kilmer was fantastic in “The Doors” which rarely gets mentioned.
He was perfect in The Doors
He did Jim Morrison perfect - my orher favorite movie of his besides Top Gun.
Are we just gonna overlook “Top Secret” from 1984?
Even better in Tombstone!
💯
Val's performance in Tombstone was one of the best I've ever seen... head and shoulders above a lot of other talented performances in that movie.
Disagree, lots of great actors in that movie.
He should've had an Oscar for his Doc Holliday, IMHO!
God bless you Val Kilmer ! Way to fight the good fight and kick that cancer square in the hind parts ! And God bless you Tom Cruise for not leaving your friend behind when he’s obviously been unable to work since 2017 or so while battling cancer. You knew he could use a payday and y’all’s fans want the REAL Iceman in your iconic sequel ! Thank you for being a good man and a great friend to Val. Love & respect to the both of you !! ✌️🇺🇸
I love Val Kilmer and think he is a phenomenal actor. Sadly, he's not been given the credit he truly deserves. I hope this is the start of a great new beginning and future for him. I'm excited to see him in more projects.
Yeah when you stop and look at his career, and especially the range of his roles, he is incredibly underrated. Was in one of the best Western movies of all time, the best heist movie of all time, played Batman, played Jim Morrison, had a very long career with many other diverse roles both as the lead actor and supporting. Also a very charismatic guy on and off screen. Rare combinations for sure.
The moment when Maverick meet Ice Man in “Top Gun : Maverick” is one of the most touching moment, kudos for Cruise & the whole production team.
Stop it!! I haven’t seen it yet😜😂😂 Can’t wait! 💕💕💕💕
@@cheryltiffany913 then why are you here??? LOL get off social media until you see it!!
Interesting that Val is continuing in show business and it is good to hear that Val and Tom Cruise were good friends in real life for decades.
Saw movie yesterday on imax outside it being ear bleeding loud i was smiling with goosebumps most of the film!
Loved ice’s appearing in a very touching and turning moment.
This movie wouldn't be the same without Icemann. I have to admit, Val Kilmer always nails every role he's played. Especially, in Top Gun and his roll as Doc Holiday in Tombstone. He's definitely one of the best actors in Hollywood. I'm so glad they included him in Top Gun Maverick. Love him. ❤️
Thank you so much for your wonderful comments and compliments. Where are you from?
The way they incorporated Val in this movie was both classy and heartfelt. Loved every moment!
It's really a shame they didn't even invite kelly, that would have been great.
I was so saddened when I heard about Val's throat cancer, I watch the Val documentary and it was really well done. I hope to see Val in more films in the future, he's a great actor and I just really like him.
Val, all prayers for you! Cancer sux! Went through Stage III myself.
I loved his role in Top Gun Maverick. Honestly that movie is just about as perfect as a movie could get, especially a sequel. I loved how they incorporated Goose as well. Amazing movie, one of my top favorite for sure!
I hope Val knows how much we’re all rooting for him!
They didn't have to add Val. I was satisfied with the texting in the movie. But after watching g the scene it was absolutely amazing especially with the last question Iceman asks Maverick. Mavericks response was priceless.
True... a brilliant moment, well done for avoiding the spoiler 👍🏼
When I saw Iceman on the movie, was very touching and to see how the story pays tribute to Val Kilmer's role respectfully almost makes me cry. This is a story and nostalgia done right.
Wong 😾
This is so amazing, so proud of Val for stepping up and continue acting, despite his condition. Inspiring.
It's sad to say , but he needs the money . He's broke and was doing conventions for cash . I'm glad his friends are throwing him these bones so he can at least work with the dignity he deserves .
Omg, ive just watch topgun maverick yesterday, i didn't know he had a throat cancer, i though he was just acting with that voice. That scene was beautiful and emotional. What a legend.
I love the support the movie industry has provided to Val so far.
Val Kilmer is one of the GREATEST actors ever! His roles are LEGENDARY, even as Jim Morrison, it bothered me until I saw that movie!! Val is a LEGEND!!!!😎😎
Val was amazing in the saint too! I thought he was so handsome! What a wonderful man! I loved the part with Val n Cruise! It was one of the best parts! Ty for showing kilmer
Val has done some really great work over his career.It was great to see him in Top Gun prayers for his recovery
First time I ever saw val was top secret. Followed through his career. One of the best actors with integrity ever. Always one of the best Mr. Kilmer. Your impact on our generation is second to no one. Huge fan sir.
Yes! I love Top Secret! I think it was shown on HBO non-stop back in the day, haha. Thanks for the memories!
"Top Secret" is a great film. One of my favorite comedies. It was his film debut. What a way to enter the movies.
Val Kilmer was great in Top Gun, The Saint, Top Secret and a few more movies. I also have mad respect for Tom Cruise for being an absolute legend and including Val Kilmer despite the adversity and giving him such an amazing role, a speaking one at that. I mean, Tom Cruise is a genuinely great human being imo.
Tombstone
Don't forget Real Genius. hilarious !
@@iwishic0uldw1n24 genius performance
@@jasonmiradoli8900 yeah I watched it again a week ago, it's phenomenal
@@iwishic0uldw1n24 Watched it last Friday while outta town with business client. Saw it again with the missus earlier today and it was just as enjoyable! Probably will end up seeing it many more times too, like after DVD release.
Loved it. It's one of the reasons i watched Top Gun 2. Not only i'm a long time fan of Val Kilmer, but he was one of the main characters in the 1st part and seeing him in the appointment scene was like a long awaited "wow, i can't wait to see how he's like" and TBH it's a big surprise and moving. The scene is short but powerful and it's smart to do it this way
I’m glad Kilmer came out for the top gun reboot, he’s an incredible actor I’ve liked for several decades now and I lost my step dad to throat cancer after a seven year battle and I’m horrified for Val, this is a tough one that takes a lot from a person! Take care and stay strong Val!
Val is such an amazing actor! I still remember his character in Real Genius! He just cracked me up! Each new role, he always had a new spin that was all “Val!”
Yup
Love him in that movie! So funny
Willow wouldn’t be the same without MadMartigan… I’m so happy that they’re working with Val to make him apart of the story :D
I can't wait to see it. Mad respect to Cruise for all he has done to make this sequel worthy...
Best movie I've seen in a while
The scene was amazing made all the more poignant because it was reflecting reality. I loved it-really got to me. The humor at the end about who’s the best pilot mercifully helped us to laugh as we wiped away a tear or two. Great movie!
The making of this movie aiming to be authentic in every way was amazing. Tom Cruise doesn’t get enough credit for his determination in sticking to his beliefs, values, and tremendous work ethic. He works tirelessly to bring us quality entertainment. But he is often bashed for his involvement in Scientology. What a shame the media has to bring that into stories about his work and relationships. What he did on Top Gun sequel with and for his friend Val was a good example for all of us. Kudos to Mr. Cruise.
Thank you so much for your wonderful comments and compliments. Where are you from?
I literally had to fight like hell to keep from crying during that scene when Mav and Ice meet at the house. This movie was unbelievably moving. Blew me away. Completely blew me away.
Iceman was my favorite character in the first film. I'm so glad that Cruise showed Kilmer respect as an actor and made sure he was included in the film.
We've missed Val.
Hope he has many more years ahead of him.
Wow sorry to hear about Val kilmer he is a tremendous actor and the fact that his buddy Tom Cruise helped him with the acting role is totally awesome too. See what two friends can work together and accomplish That's just awesome
I’m glad to see a person that had to endure the nightmare of throat cancer be welcomed back to his career. We now can all enjoy more projects from Val Kilmer.
John
I think they did a very good job honoring the cannon, and the way Kilmer was written into the film, was done extremely tastefully and it was one element of the film that really added some humanity to the narrative and it really worked well.
Agreed
Maverick honored the 5th generation fighters with the cannon
I really hope to see more of Val in the future. I had no idea that type of voice technology existed and I hope it works out for him in that respect.
Thank you Mr. Kilmer for being in the film. It wouldn't have worked without you. And it was even better than the first film. Love all your work!
Very classy to include Val in the sequel. His fans really appreciate it. We'll always love Val Kilmer!
Val is one of my favorite actors of all time. His role in Top Gun is, without a doubt, extremely important and I'm glad that Tom made sure he was back in the movie. I don't think that Top Gun: Maverick would've had the same effect without Val there being that big brother.
I had mixed feelings about seeing this film because the original is so special to me. Just saw it last night and I was blown away. Moved to tears and I didn't even know about any of this. It just makes the whole thing all the more awesome!
That “small” part was necessary and masterfully incorporated into the movie. It would have been a huge hole in the story if it was left out.
Well done!🙏
Derwin 😎
There is no one cooler than Iceman. Much love and respect to Val for giving us Iceman again. I am glad Tom Cruise brought us Maverick and was very happy with the new movie. If you haven't seen the movie, put it on the top of your to do list. I plan on going back to the theater to see it again and Val has a lot to do with it.
I'm planning to go watch again
I've always been a huge fan of Val Kilmer and have missed him so much! It was so awesome that they were able to include him and his scenes were so touching! I'm also a fan of Tom Cruise and glad he rallied for Val to be in the movie. It wouldn't have been the same without the two of them!!
Val Kilmer has always been one of my favorite actors. I'm so glad he was in the sequel. Absolurely loved the movie!❤
Val is one of my all time favorite actors and by every single account, a very nice person. I was so saddened by his cancer diagnosis and losing him as an actor. If you haven’t seen his documentary, it’s a great watch. He has certainly had an interesting life
We havent lost him. Hes just different now .... maybe better!
The movie is incredible and having Val there was certainly a big part of this flick. If you have not seen it or you are on the fence, get off the fence because this is not a flick you want to miss and seeing it on the big screen is a MUST. The sound from the fighter jets mixed with the big screen is an experience. As to the story, I liked it as much if not better than the first one, which is saying a lot. They got a lot of great young actors in the mix and I really liked the young man who played the son of Goose. There was also the cocky handsome Ice Man-like guy in the mix who was also a great add to the movie. Val had a small part but it was awesome to see him and his part certainly had a strong meeting within the story. 10 stars for this flick!
Well said, thank you!
I agree it was fantastic loved every bit and loved iceman scene hes a lovely person and actor
This film is truly a great reason to head back to the theatre. I have a terrific home system, but this movie needs the big theater system to do it justice.
Agreed great great movie
Since my childhood, Val Kilmer is one of my fav hearthrob actors with great acting skills. I have missed his on-screen presence since his movies like The Saint and Top Gun of course ! Happy that he appeared in Top Gun Maverick film ! Hope Val recovers well from his illness ! He is an Angel ! Many thanks to Tom Cruise for making sure Val's ICEMAN apoeared in the sequel !
When I watched the movie I was thinking, I'm glad Val Kilmer is in this move even if it's technically off screen and they showed him, it was such a heart warming moment! I have been recommending this movie to so many people because it was good on so many levels.
Much love and blessings to Val Kilmer and to all of you. - Bankkey
Love Val. A diverse actor. He did action and drama but he also did comedy movies and was really good in them. One of my all time fav movies is " Real Genius". It never gets brought up when people talk about Val and I'm not sure why. It's a funny movie and Val was awesome. Growing up in the 80's Val was one of my fav actors. To me he will always be "Chris Knight."
As happy as I am that Val kilmer is in this film it's saddens me the things he has gone through and still continues to go through I sit here with tears in my eyes because I know what it's like to have cancer I know the struggles you're never the same again very little makes you happy I'm glad that he was able to find his voice through this new technology and his son being able to be a part of something so special it just makes the movie that much better much more special
I saw the Amazon documentary, everything he has gone through and still be able to participate in the movie was awesome. Technology is helping so many people with disabilities is a fantastic triumph! 😆
It's so funny to me how emotionally involved I can become to characters that aren't even real. During the reuniting scene where Maverick hugs Iceman, I started to tear up, 49 year old grown man tearing up to fake characters. lol But it was a beautiful scene.
Same exact thought. I won't be 49 for 3 months, but exactly my sentiment and experience during this scene :)
Almost 62 and it hit me both times I saw it.
@@christopherjonh9458 I'm almost 63 (Oct) and haven't seen it yet, but yeah, I'll probably do the same thing...nothing wrong with that sir!
You and everyone else..... I don't think many did NOT tear up. Those that didn't are lying ;) LOL
You are most definitely not alone!
I am so glad he was in Top Gun. The role and scenes were just magically and fitting.
Was never a huge Kilmer fan (Tombstone is the exception).
But his documentary Val hit like no other Hollywood doc ever has. It was amazing and made me respect him a ton. I’m incredibly glad he’s in the movie and they fit him in perfectly.
He was great in Heat as well, if you missed that one you should check it out, one of the best movies of the 90s and widely regarded as the best heist movie of all time, although he played a supporting role to Al Pacino and Robert Deniro, he was still great in his part. And I agree about the Val documentary.

Maybe it was the hype but I watched it for the first time about 4 years ago. I thought it was a very average film. I was expecting something groundbreaking but it felt very "90s crime movie" with every trope in the book.
I'll have to give it another look.
I saw Maverick in the theater and was all smiles the entire time he was on screen.
I loved that they are considering him for roles, he's a incredible actor.
I knew going into the movie, that Val's scene would have me in tears. I wasn't wrong. It was wonderful to see him.
Val did not have to speak in that special scene. The power in his eyes, the expression in his face...wow, so beautiful, amazing acting. The silence in the theater was electric.
Great respect for what Tom did with the new Top Gun and including Val! I grew up with both being some of my favourite actors. Its just awesome to see humans being so amicable towards one another.
My favourite part of the movie was their scene together. What a treat.
I'm glad they are using Val Kilmer. Tom Cruise seems like a good friend and a stand up guy. I've always enjoyed his movies immensely.
the scene with Kilmer was done so tastefully it elevated the movie to a whole other level. it was beautiful
When I saw the photo of Val Kilmer in the Top Gun trailer, it made me get all teary. He's such a great actor. Tom Cruise made a great decision, as Kilmer adds more than a role for his movie, but a psychological shot in the arm that many of us need right now... these guys represent a lot of us who want our America back!
I got a little choked up when Val Kilmer was speaking to Tom Cruz in the movie. It was an emotional scene.
