Val Kilmer Premieres MacGruber at SXSW

Val Kilmer Premieres MacGruber at SXSW

A hefty-looking Val Kilmer hits the red carpet for a screening of his new movie, MacGruber, at the Paramount Theater during the South By Southwest Film Festival on Monday (March 15) in Austin, Texas.

“The entire script is kind of designed to ruin my career,” the 50-year-old actor joked during the MacGruber panel.

FYI: Kilmer plays villain Dieter von Cunth, who steals a nuclear warhead from his sworn enemy, MacGruber (Will Forte).

THR says MacGruber is “utterly disposable but diverting.”

Wow, you’re a jerk Jared. No need to juxtapose a picture from a movie he did more than 10 years ago to recent photos of him now.

I’d say this film can’t destroy his career because he’d done that himself. They at least made him look decent in the movie but here he looks like an overweight homeless dude. He refused to participate in the Q&A after the premiere at SXSW. Today he showed up for the discussion panel but everyone was so surprised that his name card was hand written.

He use to have a hot body, what happened?

Wow, I did not recognise him! I realise he’s fifty and doing the middle-age spreading bit but, hell, I know a few sixty year olds who haven’t spread at all. He’s going all Marlon Brando!

Are we sure that his character steals a nuclear warhead and not just a case of twinkies?

OMG! What happened to batman? gosh he’s so fat !!. But he’s a good actor!
