Nearly 10 years ago, the movie industry was hit with the tragic and unexpected death of rising star, Australian actor/director Heath Ledger. Ledger, who would’ve turned 38 yesterday, was working on The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus at the time as well as gearing up for the release of one of his biggest roles to date as The Joker in The Dark Knight series. The Posthumous release landed him both an Academy Award and Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor and set the bar for comic book-based films to come.

 

I Am Heath Ledger, takes an in-depth look through the eyes of a rising star and those close to him. The new documentary will premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival on April 23.

Check out the trailer for ‘I Am Heath Ledger’.
