HEATH LEDGER FOUND DEAD

January 22nd 2008 22:42
Heath Ledger dead
This could be a sick joke, but I'm afraid it's completely true. I still can't believe it, due to his success and as a big fan it caught me unprepared.

Heath Ledger, known from several movies and not least for his part as the Joker in the new Batman, The Dark Knight, was found dead at his apartment.


CNN reports the cause is still unknown, however sleeping pills near his bed are probably it.

Heath Ledger recently separated from Michelle Williams who he met during Brokeback Mountain, and also has a daughter with her named Matilda Rose, 2.5 years old.

Sad indeed, first for his family and friends, and secondly for film-history. Here's from what we'll remember him:

* 1999 - 10 Things I Hate About You
* 1999 - Two Hands
* 2000 - The Patriot
* 2001 - A Knight's Tale
* 2001 - Monster's Ball
* 2002 - The Four Feathers
* 2003 - The Sin Eater
* 2003 - Ned Kelly
* 2005 - Lords of Dogtown
* 2005 - Brothers Grimm- Jake Grimm
* 2005 - Brokeback Mountain - Ennis Del Mar
* 2005 - Casanova - Casanova
* 2006 - Candy - Dan
* 2008 - The Dark Knight - Joker

I couldn't believe it when I heard it on the radio this morning. I'm still in shock...

For me, his first film Black Rock (1997) launched my interest, despite him having a small part. Next was Two Hands, another standout film.

He was a brave actor taking different sorts of roles which I admired.

He'll be missed.
