Val Kilmer met his future wife, Joanne Whalley, on the set of the 1988 cult fantasy film Willow. A few years later, Whalley served as a resource actress for the 1992 summer Directors Lab at the Sundance Mountain Resort in Provo, Utah, and Kilmer came to visit her with their daughter Mercedes in tow. In the summer of 2017, 25 years later, Val and Joanne’s other child, Jack, came to the Sundance Resort as a resource actor himself! Jack is pictured above working alongside creative advisor, Ed Harris, fellow, Aleem Kahn on the set Kahn’s project, After Love.
