I agree, wasn’t Ben Foster in 30 Days Of Night?
I believe he was way better as Doc Holiday in Tombstone, he definitely deserved an Oscar for that role.
So true , however the physical resemblance ( at least back then) is uncanny in my opinion, given the opportunity he may have presented an interesting perspective.
I remember reading in Rolling Stone before the Oliver Stone movie was released that John Travolta and Timothy Hutton were both considered for the role, solid actors however not suitable in my opinion. Val Kilmer was definitely involved in his role as far as the script dictated but at certain instances it was almost like satire, and Meg Ryan was entirely misscast as Pamela Courson.
I totally agree! As an avid Doors fan, I felt as if Jason Patric was the natural and only choice for this role, not only is he a dead ringer for Morrison but also a dedicated, talented actor , however, Kilmer was entertaining if somewhat satirical.
