Heath Ledger Hangs Himself

…for a movie!

Heath Ledger was spotted shooting scenes for his upcoming fantasy film The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus in London Monday night.

In this scene, Heath was seen hanging from London’s Lambeth Bridge and was rescued by costar Andrew Garfield.

According to Film Ick, an early version of the script reveals several characters: a dwarf named Percy, a clowning, sleight-of-hand expert named Anton, a beautiful young woman named Valentina and her father Dr. Parnassus, who are all entertainers in a traveling theatre. Check out more about the movie’s plot at Wikipedia.

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is being directed by Terry Gilliam (The Brothers Grimm, 12 Monkeys) and is set for a 2009 release.

I agree with the poster who said he probably regrets losing Naomi Watts. What was he thinking of? Michelle Williams totally dragged him down to her own miserable level. Have you guys heard of the rumours that he is seeing Lily Cole, his costar in this film? I think they were seen in a nightclub here in London all over eachother a couple of weeks ago.

dude…title = not clever

I hate your title!

WTF?! HORRIBLE TITLE! Scared the hell outta me! Not funny at all.

i would kill myself, too, if i was a phi delta theta. haha.

Wow, you have a lot of whiney crying babies reading this site. I say excellent call with the headline. It grabbed my attention and it’s appropriate for this article. Kudos!

On a more cheerful note: we need a new version of Wuthering Heights. The old Olivier version of 1939 is way out of date. I suggest a new one with Heath playing….well, or course, Heathcliffe and Jake Gyllenhall playing Cathy. A bit of smart makeup and Jake could pull it off, I’m sure. You loved them together in Brokeback, now think how great they’d be getting it on again as star-crossed lovers in Wuthering Heights. I can’t wait just thinking about it. YUm yum.

Anon. Gee how brilliant. You managed to write a whole paragraph, all eleven lines of it, and it was sorta understandable. Of course you gave your silly opinion of everything as if it had any importance (it doesn’t), but hey, what can one expect of a Harvard PhD?

It’s just a title. Does anyone really believe that if he HAD hung himself they would announce it like that? Please grow up everyone.

For those that just want to see hideous “attractive” people in rom coms (I’m looking at you, “anon”), SOME people want to see films with a little depth and originality. That is why we (and presumably Mr Ledger) go to people like Terry Gilliam.

I bet you feel really bad now that he really is dead.

Whoops.

and now he really is dead. this is strange.

NOW HE’S REALLY DEAD !

He is dead in real life

How scary considering the recent news of his actual death!

I question the timing of this …. Heath Ledger was found dead today. What a horrible way to capitalize on his death. What is happening to humanity. God Bless his wife, child, family and friends.

Considering the fact that they just found Heath Ledgers body DEAD in NYC…this is a strange prophetic artcle.

RIP Heath. Youwill be missed
