Val Kilmer – Born in 1959
Val Kilmer has had some notable roles in films and theatre, but he’s also struggled with his weight and appearance over the years. He was always a good-looking guy, but he was never considered a leading man, so he starred in supporting roles. Although Kilmer got a chance in Hollywood’s biggest blockbusters, including “Batman Forever” and “Tombstone,” he could not keep it up due to weight gain in the ’00s.
The “Top Gun” star blamed his transformation on an injury that made it difficult for him to exercise, but whatever the reason, Kilmer started fading from the limelight. As his generation’s most unsung hero, he did return to fitness with an improved lifestyle.
