The two actors, who've known each other for decades, shared a touching moment that Cruise described as powerful and moving. Kilmer returned to his iconic role of Iceman, despite facing health challenges from throat cancer, and his performance resonated deeply with Cruise, who expressed admiration for Kilmer's talent and emotional presence. The scene they shared was not only pivotal to the film but also underscored their enduring friendship.
For him to come back and play that character... he's such a powerful actor that he instantly became that character again. You're looking at Iceman.
I was crying, I got emotional. He's such a brilliant actor, I love his work.
The kind of talent that he has, and you see that scene, it's very special. It's just very special.
I've always admired his work, his talent. We get together ... we just start laughing. It was special to have him back.
