yeah... he reported began having trouble sleeping while filming the Batman movie. He said it was very intense playing a sociopath like the Joker and then he went right into another emotionally wringing role, which made it even harder to sleep. He was quoted recently to have said he was getting less than 2 hours sleep a night. The unofficial cause of death seems to be mixing a prescription sleeping pill with an over the counter sleeping pill but the autopsy isn't until tomorrow.
And he has a daughter, Matilda, with Michelle Williams. They were known to be very devoted parents. When they split they put identical rooms in their homes for their daughter's bedroom so she'd feel like she was in the same room.
It's very sad. He was an extremely good actor. His death so suddenly and so unexpected I can easily see him becoming somewhat of the James Dean of our generation.

Wow.
Take it easy on Telan.
By what right can any of you declare that feeling sad and/or morose is the only valid response? Why is your right to a voiced opinion any more valid then his?
I may not agree with his assessment but he has every right to observe it and if that earns him assanine replies from the peanut gallery; we of the peanut gallery should give that careful consideration.
RIP Heath.

He has every right to observe it just like I have every right to call him out for doing so.
Freedom of speech goes both ways.

There's more than a dozen other threads we can bash Telan in. Like I dunno...
http://therebelfaction.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12189&page=4 should work. Please redirect your Telan hate there.
A thread about someone who died isn't a place for bashing, but on commenting on said death. To which, it's always a shame when someone dies young.

Indeed, show some respect.
I was shocked about this news, and still feel a little sad. I liked Heath, and he was a fairly top-notch actor, despite what critics say. It's a shame he died, and it's even sadder that it was unintentional.
RIP Heath; I'm sure your role as the Joker will be your legacy (among many other great roles).

Bet they will dedicate the movie to him, or at least they definitely should. Shame that he had to die at such a young age and right after finishing the Dark Knight.
They still don't know what killed him either, even after having a bunch of autopsies done on him.
