The tone on the set was dark and gloomy, but the sudden death of Heath Ledger added an additional and unwanted morbidity to the aura surrounding British director Christopher Nolan’s Batman sequel, The Dark Knight.
Back From The Grave!
“What Heath brought to The Joker is difficult to describe,” says Nolan. “There’s an extraordinary intensity to it and he’s absolutely terrifying.”
“We wanted him to represent pure, unadulterated evil,” he says, “and I needed a phenomenal actor, but he also had to be someone unafraid of taking on such an iconic role. Heath created something entirely original. It’s stunning, captivating. It’s going to blow people away.”
“The Joker is terrifying because there appears no rhyme or reason for what he does; he’s just a force of nature,” says Nolan. “With Two-Face, you see his transformation and you understand where his anger and his grief come from.”
Christian Bale is the new Batman in The Dark Night. The Reviews are in and this could well be the BlockBuster Hit Movie of the Summer.

Did the role of The Joker play a part in Heath Ledger’s downward spiral into Drugs, Depression and eventual prescription Drug Overdose at age 28. Speculation is there will be a posthumous Oscar Nomination for Ledger.
Marc Lee, The Daily Telegraph: The Dark Knight has plenty of high-speed, maximum-volume action sequences, but it is also one of the most intelligent big-budget Hollywood movies of recent times; and no sympathy vote is required for a cinematic creation as accomplished as Ledger’s deranged, demonic Lord of Chaos. It is a genuinely unsettling, brilliantly nuanced portrait of evil.
