Man I can't believe it... I was just driving in the car and heard on the radio that Heath Ledger was found in his NYC apartment dead. This is really sad news, he's way too young and his career was only on the upswing. He's made some really good movies and surely had many more on the horizon. Very sad...

I just saw it on yahoo.news. Did he finish filming the Batman sequel I wonder?

Pretty sad for his kid, though.

Ya, I'm pretty sure everything was done with Batman considering it comes out in a few months and the trailer's already been up for a while now. They may have still had some post production stuff to do, but I don't know. I don't know how long they finish everything up before the actual movie comes out. Damn, I didn't even know he had any kids.

remember that he died of a drug overdose.

Well, just because prescription drugs were found there, doesn't mean he topped himself, could have just been a simple accident...

Then again..

And JFK was in a car accident, right Telan?

Telan, honestly your attitude makes me sick.

yup

Just saw this posted on another forum... totally out of the blue, and very saddening. I didn't know he was so young... far too young to die. :(

Om: sounds as though shooting had already wrapped on The Dark Knight. I'm sure the film will be (rightly) dedicated to Ledger.

RIP.

Hey, Telan, his death was ruled as an accident.
