Val Kilmer mini-bio: His professional acting career began on stage, and he still participates in theatre; he played Hamlet at the 1988 Colorado Shakespeare Festival. His film debut was in the 1984 spoof Top Secret! (1984). He did his own singing in the movie, and even cut an album as Rivers. He was in a number of films throughout the 1980s, including the 1986 smash Top Gun (1986). It wasn't until his astonishingly believable performance as Jim Morrison in Oliver Stone's The Doors (1991) that the world sat up and took notice. Kilmer performed all of the concert pieces. Since then, he has played two more American legends, Elvis Presley in True Romance (1993) and Doc Holliday in Tombstone (1993). In July 1994, Kilmer took over the role of Batman/Bruce Wayne from Michael Keaton.
