it isnt a question but its breaking news. hes been found dead in his apartment apparently drugs related.
well ‘just me’ if you heard it before dont read it again
sad, that batman film would have been the making of him too

That’s really too bad. The guy was a great actor.

"It’s a haunting Hollywood story: Five months after his untimely death from an accidental drug overdose, Heath Ledger delivers arguably his best screen performance ever in the box-office blockbuster Batman adventure The Dark Knight."

For those of you who have seen to new Batman movie, do you think he is headed for a post humous oscar or after seeing the movie do you believe it is a bunch of media hype?

I think it’s media hype. If he were alive, I don’t think they would acknowledge his performance as much as they are doing now that he isn’t alive.

He died as the result of acute intoxication by the combined effects of oxycodone, hydrocodone, diazepam, temazepam, aiprazolam and doxylamine,

And it wasnt because Heath was on drugs. He just smoked but thats it
REST IN PEACE Heath Ledger!
i mean call OFF their marriage

In September 2007, Williams’ father confirmed to Sydney’s Daily Telegraph that Ledger and Williams had ended their relationship. After his break-up with Williams, in late 2007 and early 2008, the tabloid press and other public media linked Ledger romantically with supermodels Helena Christensen and Gemma Ward and with former child star, actress Mary-Kate Olsen,

I mean, they are in love with the worst scum on earth, a drug dealer is a better person that heath ledger’s joker, so How to show them they are wrong?, and teach them to choose better love partners next time, you know, like choosing any of the many kinds of people that exist and that are not psychopaths.

Just remind them that he’s dead. Won’t that be punishment enough?

i know he died from over dosing on drugs, but i heard he was doing drugs because of his part in the movie (batman the dark night) made him crazy or something cuz he was SO into the character.. etc..
but i was just wondering why was he really oding?
and what was he doing?

illegal; and legal;; and wat drugs did he do before all this, like he was an addict right?

alright, thanks (:

Let me set somethings straight: one, Heath was not an addict. He used drugs, but stop. He was never addicted. Two, he didn’t OD. Three, his character didn’t make him go crazy. People think because of his amazing job that he did, and how he got deep under the characters skin that he went crazy. He didn’t. There is proof that he didn’t.
Heath was never addict to drugs, he was in fact a smoker though. He did do drugs for the movie Candy, but stop before it came to be an addiction.
For the Dark Knight he didn’t do any drugs. He did in fact lock him self in a hotel room with all different reference of the Joker. Every minute he would work on a different aspect of the Joker until he got everything down.
For his death, during the filming of the Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus they were in horrible working conditions. He was getting a serious cold. Director Terry Gilliam told Heath to go to a doctor. For the filming they were on the road so Heath had seen many doctors, and was prescribed with three different medicines, because he had had early signs of pneumonia. One morning at the beginning of filming Terry told Heath to go home and sleep. That night Heath had taken all of the medicine. The medicines had form a chemical reaction in his body, which was fatal. He had an accidental prescription over dose.

I heard it would take a few days to die from drug overdose and it’s hard to believe he took that much drugs without realizing he could die from it. Even well liked and successful people commit suicide.

In my opinion, Heath committed suicide.
Unfortunately, It takes a strong will to live in Hollywood.
Not everyone that finds riches and fame know how to handle it!
When you have an emptiness inside, regardless of what you try, it never gets filled!
Alot of these hollywood types, think that money and fame will solve their problems!
But in the end they end up worse than when they started.
Remember the old saying? "Money does not BUY you happiness"
The only words of advice that I have for people like Heath:

When you get tired of walking the path of solitude, misery, and unhappiness.
When you finally realize that no amount of money, drugs, sex, or whatever else your into!
When you are TRULY ready for a change, I recommend that you ask JESUS into your hearts!
He is the king of kings and lord of lords!
He alone has what we are missing in our lives!

God’s Grace be with you all!

I think it was more the sudden fame and his relationship with Michelle falling apart and having his daughter taken away and everything else that really did it. But I do think that for someone who’s already in a very delicate state of mind to play a character like that probably didn’t help matters any. Shock rocker Alice Cooper once suffered from severe alcoholism and had a bit of a breakdown that resulted to a stay in a sanitarium, likely because he had trouble separating himself from the character of Alice Cooper. It happens sometimes. So though I don’t think that the Joker role was necessarily the cause, it could’ve very likely have been a factor. Such a shame,though,because I thought that was the best character he ever played
