He's dead indeed, I just found out on the news. 28 years, leaves a child and wife, the reporters don't know yet what happened.
I'm truly shocked and sad, he was a great actor and way too young to die!!

According to what I've heard it was drug related. RIP Heath.
The big question on my mind is what if the Dark Knight goes to reshoots, specifically scenes with Ledger in it? Digital inserts or what?

How absolutely horrible! A rising star just about to go stellar if the Dark Knight is any indication - and now this. The Times and The BBC both have articles on it. Pills were found near the body, but they don't know what those pills are yet. 28 though... Guy had most of his life ahead of him... |

I'm stunned by this sad news, honestly. Heath Ledger would have been one of the last people I'd have expected to meet an untimely end like this. It's really a terrible shame. He had a promising career in his lifetime, and seemed poised for even greater things. He went out far too early in life... it's just sad. |

Stunned me more than I expected, not the guy you'd think would come to this. I really liked him as an actor.

Like Macbeth, I was stunned. I was only thinking how fantastic he was in the Batman trailers the other day, and now this!

I was fairly stunned myself. But honestly? I think that the role killed Mr. Ledger. Apparently he was getting no sleep since he played as the joker. He had a book with him during the role at all times which had pictures of unspeakable things in it, which he felt the Joker would find "Funny". He also recently split with his fiance and had very little time with his daughter. On top of that while on set he seemed distanced and paranoid.
He method acted too well I suppose. I think that he took sleeping pills, too many of them, by accident because of how he was incapable of sleeping since taking on the joker.
