Val Kilmer, the star of '80s and '90s blockbusters including "Top Gun," "Batman Forever" and "Tombstone," has died, according to The Associated Press. He was 65.
The actor's daughter, Mercedes Kilmer, confirmed his death, saying he died Tuesday in Los Angeles, the AP reported.
Kilmer was diagnosed with throat cancer in 2015 and underwent a tracheotomy, which made talking difficult for the actor.
Kilmer became a major star when he landed the role of Tom "Iceman" Kazansky in the 1986 aviator blockbuster "Top Gun," alongside Tom Cruise. The film made $344 million at the box office, becoming one of the highest-grossing movies of the decade.
