''possibly drug related''
-
Woah, what's the story?
-
why so serious?
-
I wish I could quit you
-
RIP.
They found pills on his person.
Poor little girl of his.
-
Damn, who will play The Joker in the last installment?
-
That sucks.
RIP
-
Everyone who is whining about what will happen to the Dark Knight needs to be knocked senseless
-
Woah, what's the story?
Could be a drug overdose? Not certain obviously until further testing.
-
FUCK, that cock just ruined Terry Gilliam's new movie! Terry can't catch a break, can he?
-
Well...damn. :-\

This would have been awesome: "The Imaginarium stars Christopher Plummer, Tom Waits, and Heath Ledger in a story about the leader of a traveling theater troupe who, through a deal with the Devil, takes audience members through a magical mirror to explore their imaginations."
-
according to msnbc his body was surrounded by pills.
-
What are they going to do about ADR on The Dark Knight now?
-
He should have been more serious.

He should have been more serious.
Or--if was suicide--less serious.
-
according to msnbc his body was surrounded by pills.
uh, no.
NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said Ledger had an appointment for a massage at the Manhattan apartment believed to be his home. The housekeeper who went to let Ledger know the masseuse was there found him dead at 3:26 p.m. ET.
-
This is a shame, though. Why did it have to be one of the cooler young people in movies today?
-
WTF :'(

I didn't know he had a kid though. Fucking shit.
-
RIP :'(
-

Yeah, that's what really sucks. Ledger had really been building himself quite a reel the past several years. Went out way too young. It's going to be difficult watching The Dark Knight interviews now.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ they believe it was not a crime, adding prescription pills were found near his body.

i got that msnbc part from gaf :/ my bad.
-
I don't even want to go see the Dark Knight anymore.
-
Yea it'll be weird watching it now. :-\
-
I still wanna seei t.
-
Tragic. :gloomy

You don't watch old movies like Citizen Kane? Or listen to Nirvana or Bob Marley?
-
The Heath Ledger is dead thread on NeoGAF has The Dark Knight "Why So Serious?" adverts in it. :lol
-

Considering he just died, and this is the last thing he ever shot...those aren't good comparisons. In 10 years the comparison will make more since, but right now it's like...damn.
And he had a 2 year old daughter? wtf :'(
-

That's different. Those dudes have been dead for years. Ledger just died, and the movie hasn't even come out yet. It's going to be uber fucking weird watching it in July.

It actually makes me want to see Dark Knight more, to be honest. Just to see how they'll handle it - to be sure there will be some digital work done here and there that the average filmgoer won't even be aware of. I had no interest in seeing The Crow until Brandon Lee got shot here in town while filming (I actually know a guy who was on the set at the time). I was curious about how they'd pull it off - quite well, as it turned out.

So you deprived yourself of Bad Santa?
-
Isn't the film basically done? Or do they still have to add stuff here and there
-
I'll see TDK, but I'm more upset for Gilliam. That poor man has not been able to catch a break in like over a decade. His new movie was the first personal pic that he's had a budget for in years, and now one of the stars dies while it's being filmed.
Yes, it'll be hard for some people to watch TDK now (although I don't know why--it's not like you know him), but it will probably be impossible to see the new Gilliam movie! Because it won't get finished now!
-
Let me be the first to say that this came out of nowhere. RIP, brah. :'(
-
And oddly enough, his Joker looked eeriely similar to Brandon Lee's The Crow appearance. Coincidence?
I wonder if his method acting for The Dark Knight led him to drugs and whatnot. He hadn't really been a big party or drug guy in the Hollywood circuit prior to his death. Just weird.
-

Pretty sure filming is done. Just post-production work now, I'd imagine.
-
My bad, now it's saying...
NEW YORK - Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday at a downtown Manhattan residence in a possible drug-related death, police said. He was 28.
According to WNBC, Ledger was found with pills strewn all around him.
-
Even though the film is essentially in post production - his death will cause noticeable setbacks. They'll still be able to bring a finished product to theaters. I'm not sure how Gilliam is going to handle this, though. Might have to reshoot the whole damn thing.
-
FUCK, that cock just ruined Terry Gilliam's new movie! Terry can't catch a break, can he?
If he was found in Manhattan, and the shooting (which should be continuing even now) was happening in Britain and Canada, there's the chance that his scenes were already done.
Hey, anybody see Heath's well praised portrayal of a drug addict earlier last year? I'll have to check it out now, at least for irony's sake.

It's hard to kill yourself with pills alone, though. He was either trying to kill himself or there was some sort of interaction (like taking something else). Your stomach will make you puke before you try to poison yourself with a large dose of something, and all pills take a while to dissolve.
-
He was found in one of the Olsen twins apartment. This just got E! True Hollywood.
-
that's worse than elvis dying on the toilet
-
You're kidding about the Olsen twin thing, right? If not, talk about trading down. He used to go out with Naomi Watts.
-
Nope, it's being reported he was found at Mary-Kate's.
-
Should've been her overdosing.
-
mary kate, she's the ugly one, right
-
Thankfully, the Mary-Kate thing is bullshit.
-
This is horrible news
-
The guy was awesome in Lords of Dogtown.
-
You're kidding about the Olsen twin thing, right? If not, talk about trading down. He used to go out with Naomi Watts.
And Heather Graham. But either Olsen twin is richer than both Watts and Graham combined.
-

Prove it.
-
TMZ reported it and recanted a bit later.
-
i know this makes me a bad person but I was reading his wiki article and I saw the movie he was currently fiming and I went to the talk page because it was locked (to prevent changes obviously) but this made me lol:
Heath Ledger
someone changed "heath ledger" to "zombie heath ledger" in the sidebar. it directs to the article on zombies, rather than the article on heath ledger. someone should prolly fix this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.247.156.98

His life must have been awful if he was willing to let his most notable role be a gay cowboy before he died.
he should have waited until batman came out.
I mean, the guy had a kid..
-
I really liked 10 Things I Hate About You. :'(
-
didnt even know the guy
-
didnt even know the guy
Ditto. I thought I was the only one.
-

Has it been confirmed that it was a suicide? You make it sound like he knew he was going to die.

Let us not forget Michelle Williams. :drool

I have no sypathy for this man, especially if he killed himself when he has a 2 year old little girl. Nerdlingers be damned. Fuck your precious Joker.

that's a shame
i really enjoyed his work

He'll have an awesome grave.
Beneath this granite ledger
Lies Heath Andrew Ledger
-
Were the reasons ever disclosed why he had to drop out of Malick's 'Tree of Life'?
Such a terrible shame.... since 2005 he was on the path to greatness.

I'd assume the timing didn't line up. That was announced like 3 years ago, and it hasn't started filming yet. Being committed to that probably prevented him from lining up more roles.
-
Sources are now saying he died of pneumonia.
Still not 100% though.
-
smh, sucks :-\
-
I've actually rather liked Ledger ever since 10 things and A Knights Tale. This shocks me a bit even. It seemed like he would have a long career and probably some nice awards.

The movie was just okay, but Heath was good in his role. It's a harsh drug story and a relationship story mixed together.
-
Holy fucking shit. That's really awful news. I actually saw Heath Ledger (didn't speak to him) when I was in Italy in 2004. :(
And wtf at the people cracking jokes in this thread.
-
Looks like it was a combination of sleep deprivation, pneumonia, and abuse of sleeping pills. It was definitely accidental.
What a sad way to do. :(
-
http://ytmnd.com/
almost started crying :'(
-
well that sucks if it was accidental. rip
-
He might not have even known he had pneumonia if he was trying to self-medicate with over-the-counter stuff thinking it was just a bad cold/jet lag. Poor guy.
-

(10:36:37 PM) friend: the joker loses

(10:36:56 PM) friend: indeed
(10:37:06 PM) friend: he saw him taking all those pills
(10:37:07 PM) friend: he said
(10:37:19 PM) friend: i'm not gonna kill you, but that doesnt mean i have to save you
(10:37:24 PM) friend: then he shut the apartment door

Uhm, except that chick wasn't famous so it's okay to make fun of her. Posting on Evilbore has taught me that, if nothing else.
-
You mean GAF has taught you that. ;)
-
Yeah, EB just taught me to make fun of disabled stalkers and teenage fatties. :(
-
hahaha, just bustin your onions
-
That banner is still one of the greatest things I've ever seen.
-
Is it weird that I feel kinda sad?
-
It is pretty sad. I saw I'm Not There on Friday night, he was good in it. Hell, ever since he did Monster's Ball, he's been turning out great performances.
-
This is kind of sad. WHY COULDN'T IT HAVE BEEN BRITNEY? OR EVEN BETTER, LEMURS!
-
You read my mind, TVC. I was just about to post "If it had been Britney or Lindsay Lohan, I wouldn't really give a damn. The fact that it was a talented guy who was willing to take risky roles for the sake of his art just makes it so much worse."
-
Terry Gilliam is drinking tonight! He's getting old. This may have been his last chance at a budget. I hope he can do something.
-
:'( Heath
:'( :'( Gilliam
-
I say just shoot a body double from the back for all remaining scenes.
-
Fat Man Knowles is reporting that Heath was completely finished with all the post filming work on TDK so he could focus on Gilliam's movie.

Lohan should stick around just because she's most likely to be in the first celebrity gangbang video.

Ehm, she's stupid but I think she learned from the whole Paris Hilton fiasco. Plus, she's in AA now.

I like what Lindsay has learned from AA. She was recently caught making out with 3 different guys on the same day.
-
good night, sweet prince.
-
I still can't believe this is true!
-
I still can't believe this is true!
That's because death from drug overdose is so rare nowadays. This wouldn't have been so shocking in the eighties or early nineties.
-
The guy was 28, not a known partier, and on his way to cementing his status as an A-list star. This isn't like River Phoenix OD'ing, by all reports, this was a stable dude.
THIS IS WRONG
JESUS WHY COULDN'T YOU TAKE BRITNEY
-
wait so this is real?
if so: :'(
One of the few celebrity deaths thats upset me :'( :'( :'(
the other two were Kurt Vonnegut (altohugh he was pretty much ready to go) and John Ritter
-

This is very depressing, my girlfriend was bummed when she heard this part.
-
Yeah, this is just ridiculous.
We have bitches like Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and Britney Spears snorting everything available to snort, having lots of sex, drinking, and all they are doing is just taking up our news programs with shit and nonsense.
Meanwhile, Heath Ledger, who is pretty straight-cut, either takes too many sleeping pills trying to sleep or he dies of fucking pnemonia.
INJUSTICE.

I see it in a different view.
these bitches are dying slowly while Heath is enjoying his time...somewhere up there.
-
yeah, my wife was kinda bummed about this news -- she really likes heath's work.
-
Man, if this was an accident, what a tragedy. He was just about to breakout huge.

Fuck Heath Ledger.
