The Mission Impossible star called for a moment of silence at a film event in Las Vegas. He said his Top Gun co-star „gave a lot to all of us“ and asked the audience to „think about all the wonderful times that we had with him“.
Tom Cruise has paid tribute to Val Kilmer, wishing his Top Gun co-star „well on the next journey“.
Cruise, speaking at the CinemaCon film event in Las Vegas on Thursday, asked for a moment’s silence to reflect on the „wonderful“ times shared with the star, whom he called a „dear friend“.
Kilmer, who died of pneumonia on Tuesday aged 65, rocketed to fame starring alongside Cruise in the 1986 blockbuster Top Gun, playing Tom ‚Iceman‘ Kazansky, a rival fighter pilot to Cruise’s character Maverick.
His last part was a cameo role in the 2022 blockbuster sequel Top Gun: Maverick.
