Heath Ledger, "Dark Knight's" Joker, found dead

I was prepping a blog post on the Oscar noms just now when an email from a pal alerted me to the news that acter Heath Ledger, who was nominated for an Oscar for his role in "Brokeback Mountain" and whose take on The Joker is an anticipated highpoint in the upcoming Batman film "The Dark Knight," was found dead today in a New York apartment.

Details are coming in, but early reports can be found here.

This will make "The Dark Knight," which is one of the most anticipated films of the summer, a much more solemn event.

Yeah, this is sad news indeed. Besides being a great actor he was also a great person.

RIP Heath Ledger 1979-2008.
