BuriedInCarolina 46 Posted June 3, 2015 In January 2015, Val Kilmer was hospitalized for massive bleeding in his throat. It was reported that Kilmer has a throat tumor and refused to seek treatment due to his religion, though Kilmer denies this. "Val Kilmer appears frail and wraps up in two scarves for church outing after denying he is suffering from throat tumor." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-3106428/Val-Kilmer-appears-frail-wraps-two-scarves-church-outing-denying-suffering-throat-tumor.html 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Their journalism has that throwing darts at pictures quality of accuracy. Still, Kilmer looks bad at the mo. I was only going to mention Perkins (someone from the hospital leaked his medical results to them before he even knew about them) but remember the Jackson one, though as you mention, it was more a case of broken clock being right.

What happens to a character when their actor dies do they die as well Hmm, I guess these things occasionally happen. Though I can't think of an example at the moment (sequel with a main character dying during the shooting). It has happened a few times but the circumstances - kind of - dictate the decision. So "Something's Got to Give" died with Marilyn Monroe (I mean, was Diana Dors gonna get roped in to double?) There's a grisly spot the body double game to be enjoyed in the final season of Auf Weidersien Pet to feature Gary Holton where Wayne appears in scenes, shot from behind with a fairly blatant body double. By far the funniest (because it's celebrated for all the wrong reasons) case of replacement is the "old man" character played by Bela Lugosi in "Plan Nine from Outer Space." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,628 Posted October 23, 2015 Looks like he's definitely in hospital but how serious it is is a matter of gossip site conjecture. No smoke without fire/throat cancer though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,365 Posted October 23, 2015 I reckon he is lying!There is clearly something seriously wrong with his throat for him to keep covering his neck up .Not to mention the severe weight loss and unusually pale complexion.I normally take these rag stories with a pinch of salt but this certainly seems credible.I would say he is probably worth a place on the list next year at 47 or something similar. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
