Val Kilmer’s Bizarre Obsession with Cate Blanchett
All weekend long, actor Val Kilmer took to Twitter to tweet about his former co-star Cate Blanchett, with whom he starred in the 2003 film “The Missing."
On Friday, he tweeted, "Once I flew all the way to Australia just to talk to Cate Blanchett. Her husband met me first. Or, instead, I guess, to be accurate.”
He continued, "And recently I've had 2 dreams with #CateBlanchett in them. Her husband wasn't in either of them.”
On Saturday, Val still had Cate on his mind, tweeting, "She's just as amazing in person. Some super stars aren't-Some superstars don't do a thing to ya in person-Cate is so real it's almost unreal.”
Along with his tweets on New York City, Kilmer revealed, "Once I did a cameo just to hang w/ #cateblanchett who pickd up a shovel in our sc. I was so dazzled by HOW she picked it up I forgot my line."
He even posted a black-and-white photo of Cate, writing, "I mean even if she couldnt act you know what I mean?”
