From Quiz Who Played Me in "Batman Forever"?
Answer:
Val Kilmer
Kilmer, born on December 31st, 1959 in Los Angeles, California, was cast as Bruce Wayne/Batman. Bruce was a wealthy philanthropist who liked to get involved in many charitable deeds but it was at nighttime that he would transform into Batman to fight crime. Batman's first assignment in this film was to respond to a bank robbery which was committed by his enemy, Two Face. In another scene, Bruce Wayne noticed a riddle which had to do with numbers and he managed to solve the riddle. In many scenes in the movie, Bruce interacted with a young man named Dick Grayson who wanted to help fight crime with him. Bruce was initially reluctant to let Dick join him in crime-fighting but he eventually relented and Dick then became Robin. In one major scene, Bruce was on a date with Dr. Chase Meridian at Wayne Manor when Two Face and The Riddler arrived with their goons. They destroyed the home and kidnapped Chase, which left Bruce devastated. Batman went to The Riddler's lair and saw that both he and Two Face were holding Chase and Robin captive. Batman managed to overpower the two and rescue both Chase and Robin. In Bruce's final scene, he visited The Riddler at Arkham Asylum and heard The Riddler claim that he was Batman. Kilmer starred in the films "Top Gun", "The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call-New Orleans" and "The Saint".
