Heath Ledger
Heath Ledger’s turn as the famed Joker in “The Dark Knight” earned him Oscar buzz well before the film hit the theaters. But things turned tragic when he was found dead in his Manhattan apartment in January 2008. He died from a prescription overdose a third of the way into the filming of The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. Ledger’s death cast a somber cloud over the release of the blockbuster film “The Dark Knight.” Ledger was dating girlfriend and the mother of his daughter Michelle Williams at the time of his death.
