Default Heath Ledger Dead in NY
Heath Ledger was found this morning around 3am, dead, in NY of a suspected drug overdose.
I can't say I liked his work, but its still sad.
In any case Australia has lost one of its stars and it will definitely tell.

I was shocked to hear it to. Though I thought I read he was found at 3:30pm.

The only movie that I ever liked him in was "The Patriot", but I'm really looking forward to seeing "The Dark Knight".

Oh, I heard 'am' not 'pm', perhaps I misunderstood. Sorry if thats wrong.

This is sad and tragic. Yknow how they talk of this happening in threes. First Brad Renfro, then Ledger, and then ?. Probably wont be Britney. Too obvious. These guys werent even 30! Ledger left behind a family too.

the dead is tragic in its own way provided that Heath is such a great actor and what bother's me is who will replace him as Joker in The Dark Knight because if im not mistaken he is still filming this one

Havent they finished filming? Maybe they will use special effects. Its more easier cos jokers face is white so the accuracy of ledgers face shouldnt be that much of a problem.

Like the crow with brandon lee

From what I've read, he'd finished filming his scenes for "The Dark Knight". So any reshoots or stuff like that they might need a double, or just use cgi for it.

After seeing all his old interviews on tv now, Ledger seems like he was a kind of weird guy. He was never the leading man that Hollywood hoped he'd be, but now he'll always be remembered with the likes of James Dean, River Phoenix and Brandon Lee, as actors who passed away before they realized their potential.
