Crazy.............. I really like him (as an actor not brokeback mountain style). He's the new joker too, and man it looks like he plays a dang good joker too..

NEW YORK — Actor Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday at a downtown Manhattan residence in what authorities say is a possible drug-related death, the NYPD said. He was 28.

NYPD spokesman said that Ledger had an appointment for a massage at the Manhattan apartment that is believed to be his home. The housekeeper who went to let Ledger know the masseuse was there, and found him dead at 3:26 p.m, Browne said.

The Australian-born actor was an Oscar nominee for his role in "Brokeback Mountain" and has numerous other screen credits.

I loved him in 10 Things, First Knight and the Patriot. IMDB is saying that Dark Knight is in post-production, so I guess they were done filming.

Funny...why is no one talking about his all star performance in Broke Back Mountain?

Hands down...this man will be missed, if for nothing else but his sexy self...

Very sad. I thought he did an admirable job in "The Patriot."

What a waste of a life if drugs were involved. I feel sad for his daughter and wonder if that's what ended his marriage so quickly.

I heard this morning that it was an accidental drug overdose. What a shame.

Total shocker - I was sad to hear it. He was a good actor. I hope I never become famous, it wipes people out!
