Val Kilmer's ``Batman'' may not be forever.
Kilmer took over the Caped Crusader role from Michael Keaton in the third ``Batman'' movie but he doesn't want to don ice skates against nemesis Mr. Freeze in ``Batman and Robin,'' Daily Variety has reported.
Warner Bros. executives are trying to change Kilmer's mind, but contingency plans are already in the works for a new Bruce Wayne with ``ER'' TV star George Clooney heading the Batlist, Variety sources said.
``Batman and Robin,'' set to star Kilmer, Chris O'Donnell, Alicia Silverstone as Batgirl and Uma Thurman as villainess Poison Ivy, anchors the summer 1997 Warner Bros. schedule. Mr. Freeze hasn't been cast.
Valentine's Day was chock full of milestones for Florence Henderson.
Henderson, who played Carol Brady on ``The Brady Bunch,'' turned 62 Wednesday - the same day she became the 2,061st recipient of a star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame.
``I can't think of a greater gift,'' Henderson said.
For the occasion, Henderson was serenaded by Jim Nabors and Marilyn Horne, who led a crowd in singing ``Happy Birthday."
