In his memoir, Kilmer writes about how Jolie “rescued” him from a tough time in his life, describing her as a “soulful and serious” person.

“When people ask me what Angelina is like, I always say she’s like other women and other superstars, but just more,” Kilmer writes. “More gorgeous.

More wise. More tragic. More magic. More grounded.” He adds that despite the challenges of understanding someone with such depth, it was worth the effort.

Shortly after their brief fling, Jolie began filming “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” with Brad Pitt. Their on-screen chemistry quickly turned into a real-life romance, which became one of Hollywood’s most famous relationships.

In his memoir, Kilmer also discusses other high-profile relationships, including those with Cher, Carly Simon, and Cindy Crawford. However, he admits that his failed romance with actress Daryl Hannah left him heartbroken.
