This is such a shock and a tragic loss.

Come one come all and discuss this amazing actor who left behind a slew of great performances.

From here:

Quote:
Heath Ledger found dead in NYC at age 28

NEW YORK - Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday at a downtown Manhattan apartment, naked in bed with sleeping pills nearby, police said. The Australian-born actor was 28. It wasn't immediately clear if Ledger had committed suicide.

He had an appointment for a massage at a residence in the tony neighborhood of SoHo, NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said. A housekeeper who went to let him know the massage therapist had arrived found him dead at 3:26 p.m.

A large crowd of paparazzi and gawkers gathered outside the building on an upscale block. Ledger's body was still inside, and several police officers guarded the door.

The medical examiner's office planned an autopsy Wednesday, spokeswoman Ellen Borakove said.

While not a marquee movie star, Ledger was a respected, award-winning actor who chose his roles carefully rather than cashing in on his heartthrob looks. He was nominated for an Oscar for his performance as a gay cowboy in "Brokeback Mountain," where he met Michelle Williams, who played his wife in the film. The two had a daughter, Matilda, and lived together in Brooklyn until they split up last year.

Ledger most recently appeared in "I'm Not There," in which he played one of the many incarnations of Bob Dylan ƒƒ‚‚ as did Cate Blanchett, whose performance in that film earned an Oscar nomination Tuesday for best supporting actress.

Ledger had finished filming his role as the Joker this year in "The Dark Knight," a sequel to 2005's "Batman Begins."

He's had starring roles in "A Knight's Tale" and "The Patriot," and played the suicidal son of Billy Bob Thornton in "Monster's Ball." He also played a heroin addict in the 2006 Australian film "Candy."

Before settling down with Williams, Ledger had relationships with actresses Heather Graham and Naomi Watts. He met Watts while working on "The Lords of Dogtown," a fictionalized version of a cult classic skateboarding documentary, in 2004.

Ledger was born in 1979 in Perth, in western Australia, to a mining engineer and a French teacher, and got his first acting role playing Peter Pan at age 10 at a local theater company. He began acting in independent films as a 16-year-old in Sydney and played a cyclist hoping to land a spot on an Olympic team in a 1996 television show, "Seat."

After several independent films, Ledger moved to Los Angeles at age 19 and co-starred opposite Julia Stiles in "10 Things I Hate About You," a teen comedy reworking of "The Taming of the Shrew."

Offers for other teen flicks soon came his way, but Ledger turned them down, preferring to remain idle than sign on for projects he didn't like.

"It wasn't a hard decision for me," Ledger told the Associated Press in 2001. "It was hard for everyone else around me to understand. Agents were like, 'You're crazy,' my parents were like, 'Come on, you have to eat.'"

His movie career caught on anyway, culminating with his Academy Award nomination opposite Jake Gyllenhaal in "Brokeback."

"Dark Knight" director Christopher Nolan said earlier this month that Ledger's performance as the Joker would be wildly different than Jack Nicholson's memorable turn in 1989's "Batman."

"It was a very great challenge for Heath," Nolan said. "He's extremely original, extremely frightening, tremendously edgy. A very young character, a very anarchic presence that taps into a lot of our basic fears and panic."

Thanks for opening the new thread. It's amazing at how much the list has grown. Sad that it had to take his death to bring us all together.

My favorite movie of his was "The Patriot". That's the first one I remember seeing. I"ll have to go rent it again.

Just seeing all of his movies will be difficult but at the same time at least we have those memories.

Love you Heath!

Thanks for the new thread, Gay. I was wondering, maybe the title of the supporters list could be changed to something more appropriate? I don't know, just a thought.

I don't know if this has still sunk in. I'm still a bit in denial, I mean it's Heath, how can he be gone? Such a young and talented man, his whole life ahead of him, it doesn't seem real or fair. I hope his family and friends and Michelle & Matilda will find strength to get through this, this must be such a horrible time for them. The pain they must be in, I can't even imagine...

But Heath will always live on through his work and his daughter. We will always remember him, he's now a true star. I hope he's in a better place now and at peace.

Gay:Hey! I haven't seen you in so long. I don't know if you remember me I am so sorry for haven't posting on the Jake Gyllenhaal board. I am coming back .

Cereal Killer:I know what you mean. I just can't except the fact that he is gone. It is just so hard to believe. He was just an incredible and beloved actor. To me as a person, he was a down to earth,charming,sweet,shy,beautiful person from the inside and outside.

When a celebrity dies, you feel bad but finding out about heath ledger I am just so upset and devasted by this.

ScorpioGirl: That's exactly how I feel. It's sad when a celebrity dies of course but this is Heath Ledger. Here is someone that we grew up watching. Someone who lit a spark when we watched his movies. It's hard to believe he's actually gone. I accept it now but I don't want to believe it just yet. How could this happen? And most importantly, why did God cut his life short like this?

I want to be angry with God so much right now but I don't have it in me to do so.

It still hasn't sunk in really yet. Heath was one of those actors you could just imagine continuing his career til' he grew old. I hope he felt somewhat fulfilled in life though with a succesful career and a daughter. Hopefully 'The Dark Knight' movie will be dedicated or in rememberance of Heath or something similar. The movie will still have a "shadow" cast over it though unforunately. I didn't watch the first one but I will definately go and see this, as a dedication.

exactly! I love how you said it. I just can't except it. When you watch his movies, of course it is a tribute but it is going to be so hard to watch his movies now because when you watch Heath onscreen, you are thinking, i just can't believe this.

R2Roswell oh yes. It seemed like yesterday when we were scramming all over to have people vote for his board. Now, we've got like what more than a hundred and it is painful to know that death had brought us all together.

My fave heath movie of course is BBM. He is my Ennis. It was a very powerful performance, especially the last scene (hence, the title).

Laura Thank you hon. Anything you'd like to suggest? I think we should change it, too.

Brajavio I'm sure it will be. I fear the day I watch on cinema. I'd probably just breakdown and cry.

Stef Of course I remember you. We had come a long way. I haven't been on the Jake Board that often, too. I know what you mean about other celebrities dying. But to hear about Heath's, I just felt so numb. I felt like I was paralyzed. I don't want to accept it, too.

I swear the press is so heartless.

Not only are they in Michelle's face video taping her arriving to her place, but in Busy's face as well and bless her heart, you can tell she is so hurt as well and not to mention all over Jake and streaming live video from the funeral chapel right now.

I don't get it. I don't understand how someone can be so cruel for a headline.

I understand freedom of the press, I really do, but this isn't journalism, is sick and a total invasion of privacy.

Gay, maybe something along the lines of paying respect or cherising his memory or something?

I haven't read much press but I do hate the fact how they speculate on the cause of his death and film Michelle arriving to his apartment and stuff. It just seems heartless, no respect whatsoever. I didn't know much about Heath as a person but from what I've gathered, he seemed to be a shy yet charismatic and very nice and hard-working man. I heard he was suffering from insomnia for a long time. And of what I'm sure is that he absolutely adored his little girl. I cannot believe he would take his own life and leave his daughter like that. I don't understand people who say that suicide would be a better option cos then at least he chose to go and got what he wanted and his death wasn't as "pointless" as it would be if it was an accident. I don't see how choosing death over life is a "better option". I'm sure this was a very unfortunate and tragic accident, a very tired man was trying to get a moment of rest and made a mistake by accident. I wish that was confirmed soon so that all the speculation would stop.

My favourite Heath movie is also Brokeback Mountain. One of these days I'll watch it again. I also enjoyed his performance in Knight's Tale, I should watch it again too. And I haven't seen the Batman movies (except one years ago) but I'm thinking about going to see Dark Knight just out of respect to Heath. It will somehow be his legacy, I guess. It's just so sad to think that there will be no more movies from him. He still had so much more to give...
