R.I.P. Heath Ledger

[groovychk]

I was stunned to read that Heath Ledger was found dead in an apartment in NYC. Pills were strewn around so it looks likely that it's an OD. Not sure if it was intentional at this point.
I liked him and I was really looking forward to his role as the Joker in The Dark Knight.

A very sad day indeed. RIP Heath. :(

They had a thing about that on the morning "news" that i was watching at the gym today. Seems like if people had been watching, this'd have been predictable. Many recent interviews of him talking about death. TDK was finished, so will be released - apparently he got so into the character of the Joker that he had to take sedatives at night to calm down...

Sad.
