Kilmer gets 'cold feet' over Hitler film

Val Kilmer has pulled out of playing Adolf Hitler in a film focusing on the German dictator after reportedly getting 'cold feet' about being involved in the project.

The Kiss Kiss Bang Bang star had said yes to the part for comic movie Hebrew Hammer 2: Hammer Versus Hitler, but then mysteriously refused to go ahead with it.

A source told the New York Post: "Val was supposed to be in the film but he must have just got cold feet because he's pulled out."

Adam Goldberg, who played an Orthodox Jewish action hero in the first film will reprise his role in the sequel, which will mock Mel Gibson's anti-Jewish rant last year.
