Man that sucks, he had such a promising career ahead of him. I feel really bad for his daughter.

My friend told me he read that Dark Knight is going to be delayed I have yet to find that anywhere myself though, so if anyone can confirm that, I'd appreciate it.

Wow, shocking news.  I wouldn't have been surprised if it was Hilton, Spears, Lohan or any of their ilk, but this death really caught me off guard.  I was apprehensive about him playing the Joker, but from what I've seen so far, Ledger nailed the part.  And the worst part is there is now a 2 year old girl with no father.

RIP Heath.

I was very suprised by the news. I was in session with a client and i got a text from my girlfriend about it. Its really too bad, i really liked him as an actor. Perhaps evil of me, but i did say to myself, i hope they finished filming Batman.

I hope they finished filming too.  Not so much for the sake of the movie, but for his sake too; if that makes sense. 

And very sorry to hear, especially for his daughter.

As Chris mentioned earlier, The Dark Knight is in post production & Heath's post work was complete.

Regarding Heath's work as The Joker in THE DARK KNIGHT

Holy ****.

Guess I'll ask the obvious:  Did they finish filming all the Batman stuff?

It's confirmed, he did finish the filming.

I feel sorry for his daughter, not him.
Drug overdose.... That's his fault. Did he have any drug problems before?

It's a shame that he passed away.  It's a bigger shame that the media shamefully rushed to the story that he had a drug problem, when there was no evidence of one like other celebreties out there...and the facts seem to point to an accidental death to mixing perscription drugs.

I've been eagerly awaiting the release of The Dark Knight and think the film will be a nice tribute to his acting work.
This is the way.


I have spoken.
