Kilmer passed away in 2025 after battling throat cancer. Apparently his character will feature in over an hour of the movie.

So just holding him to his contractual obligations after death then?

That's not making it any better.

Will his estate see the amount he was contractually obligated for revenue, etc?

I'd imagine so, yes.

In that context, that's more ghoulish.
