I AM HEATH LEDGER Movie Clip - Crafting The Joker for The Dark Knight (2...

Joker role in ‘The Dark Knight’ had nothing to do with his death

A documentary about Heath Ledger’s life called I Am Heath Ledger will air on Spike TV next month. It premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival over the weekend, and Ledger’s sisters Kate Ledger and Ashleigh Bell were there to debunk a popular, yet unfounded rumor about their brother’s untimely death.
We know that Heath Ledger took his role in The Dark Knight very seriously. You can see that up on the screen as you watch his Oscar-winning performance as The Joker. But as the rumor goes… all the darkness associated with The Joker took a toll on Ledger, leaving him depressed, which led to his drug overdose. According to Ledger’s sisters, that couldn’t be further from the truth.
“Everything that came to light about the Joker, we were all so confused,” Kate said. She and Bell went on to call speculation that the role made their brother depressed “so not true.”
“Honestly, it was the absolute opposite,” Kate went on. “He had an amazing sense of humor, and I guess maybe only his close family and friends really knew that, but he was having fun. He wasn’t depressed about the Joker.”

It's widely believed that Heath Ledger's sheer dedication to immersing himself in the Joker's dark psyche led him to his tragic death, and a look inside the iconic actor's 'Joker Diary' is a poignant reminder of his possibly deadly level of commitment to the role.
In a German documentary entitled Too Young To Die, Heath's father, Kim Ledger, takes us on an emotional journey through the chaotic pages of his son's efforts to truly get into character and it isn't easy viewing for any Ledger fan.
