January 22, 2008 -- Actor Heath Ledger was found dead today in a Broome Street apartment, apparently from a drug overdose.

Ledger was well known for his role in "Brokeback Mountain," and he stars in the upcoming "The Dark Knight" Batman movie as the Joker.

He split last year from wife, Michelle Williams, with whom he has a daughter.

His apartment was strewn with pills, sources said. It was unclear if it was an intentional or accidental death.

THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY. REFRESH FOR UPDATES.

Aw that sucks. RIP to the Joker.

kdashy · 01-22-2008, 02:58 PM

Wow. I didn't know he had a drug problem.

Well now I gotta see the movie.

A Spec Products · 01-22-2008, 03:02 PM

Oh man

That sucks

I thought maybe this was a joke

RIP

SHIFT_*grind* · 01-22-2008, 03:06 PM

Wooooooooooow. Had no clue.

Really sucks

WERDdabuilder · 01-22-2008, 03:02 PM

^no pun intended?

**ThatGuy** · 01-22-2008, 03:04 PM

Shit, that just fucked up a sequel run of Batman vs. Joker.

If it was an accidental overdose, then I'll feel bad for him.

Isn't the movie already done? At least now-a-days they could CG his death sequence in the movie to end his character.

They only said "pills" in the report I read. Like maybe he possibly took too much over the counter medicine, by accident, and had a reaction that led to his demise.

Accidentally/purposely taking too much of an illegal substance = no remorse from me.
I'm just trying not to jump the gun until I hear the "Tox" results.

driftyour40 · 01-22-2008, 03:25 PM

RIP... good actor, but can't really feel bad for him.

Yea don't feel bad. They put them selves in that situation.

mrpeepers · 01-22-2008, 03:07 PM

That is some tragic shit right there. I acutally thought he had an ounce of talent too. Damn gonna watch dark knight now for sure

Full-Lock · 01-22-2008, 03:09 PM

holy shit

i thought this was a joke too

man that sucks
he was a good actor

i enjoyed a lot of his films

OptionZero · 01-22-2008, 03:09 PM

FUCK

If only the movie weren't done

Then we could go back and get my homeboy MARK HAMILL to fill in

Shit. Dude shoulda taken more drugs earlier.

*ManoNegra* · 01-22-2008, 03:10 PM

Man, co-worker just ran over to tell me... seriously f-d up.. rip

**ThatGuy** · 01-22-2008, 03:10 PM

I'm sure they could CG his face onto another actor (ala The Crow), but Joker shouldn't die in one movie. Batman vs. Joker is a timeless rivalry. I'd hate to see it get screwed up because Heath had a problem. I was pissed enough when Tim Burton killed off Jack's Joker.

WERDdabuilder · 01-22-2008, 03:13 PM

so wait..Dark Knight isnt finished? thought its been done for a while now.

*ManoNegra* · 01-22-2008, 03:13 PM

NY Post is saying housekeeper found him, lot of sleeping pills laying around.

Pank · 01-22-2008, 03:15 PM

durr, i didn't even see that, and i read the NYpost article too.

-1 for me, shit.

LongGrain · 01-22-2008, 03:20 PM

does anyone know if the movie is already finished?

the dark knight was done i believe
but he was filming another movie...The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus...i dont think that was done yet

azndoc · 01-22-2008, 03:28 PM

Damn that sucks.

I like some of his movies too.

I would make a brokeback joke but I'm just not that cruel.

RIP

lost_generation · 01-22-2008, 03:47 PM

the dark knight was finished a while ago, its been post production for well over a month...

very shitty deal, Heath was a VERY good actor and had a blosoming career...shitty way to end it... hopefully he died in another way than a drug overdose

Daniel. · 01-22-2008, 03:48 PM

Fuck. that hella sucks.

how is he going to receive all the props for his role as the joker?

lflkajfj12123 · 01-22-2008, 03:57 PM
