This australian actor did several roles in Australian television and film productions in the 1990s, before packing up and moving the US in 1998 to further develop his career. It obviously was a good move for the young actor, he made 19 films since 1999, and even produced and directed music videos. It seemed he was at the prime of his life. But a few months after he finished filming The Dark Knight as the Joker, and in the midst of filming The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, he overdosed on pain-killers and the combined effects of several other medications. Fans were shocked and actually confused about the actor’s death. But many still paid tribute by leaving flowers and other memorial tributes outside his apartment building. Multitudes of fans all over the world expressed their grief, including the Australian Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd. His role as the Joker in The Dark Knight won the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor – Motion Picture in 2009. The award was accepted by the director Christopher Nolan on his behalf. That may have been the greatest tribute to an actor of his caliber, he will be missed.
