Mercedes and Jack Kilmer, the children of actor Val Kilmer, took the spotlight during the Val photocall during the 2021 Cannes Film Festival on Wednesday (July 7) in Cannes, France.
The two siblings, 29 and 26, respectively, were joined by co-directors Leo Scott and Ting Poo for the press event.
Mercedes and Jack are both credited as producers on the documentary about their father.
The documentary will focus on Val‘s career and his recovery following throat cancer.
Here’s a synopsis for the movie: For over 40 years Val Kilmer, one of Hollywood’s most mercurial and/or misunderstood actors has been documenting his own life and craft through film and video. He has amassed thousands of hours of footage, from 16mm home movies made with his brothers, to time spent in iconic roles for blockbuster movies like Top Gun, The Doors, Tombstone, and Batman Forever. This raw, wildly original and unflinching documentary reveals a life lived to extremes and a heart-filled, sometimes hilarious look at what it means to be an artist and a complex man.
Val will premiere on Amazon on August 6th, 2021. Watch the trailer here…
