Dark Knight star, Heath Ledger found dead in NYC Apartment

I was shocked and sad to learn that one of the main stars of the forth coming Batman film The Dark Knight, Heath Ledger was found dead in his New York City apartment yesterday evening.

Speculation on his death circles around a drug overdose but it is unkown whether it was accidental.

Heath Ledger was nominated for an Oscar for his role in the controversial film Broke Back Mountain and was brought to Hollywood fame by Mel Gibson as a supporting role in the The Patriot.

I first remember Heath Ledger from the film 10 Things I Hate About You, followed by A Knights Tale and The Brothers Grimm. Although I wasnt a major Heath Ledger fan, I was really looking forward to seeing him the new Batman film, The Dark Kight (more information here)

What a waste of talent. Heath Ledger was only 28 years old and already achieved so much. Unfortunately Heath Ledger is dead, and I dont want to sound like a dick, but I hope the new Batman film is not postponed....
