Heath Ledger as The Joker in Dark Knight

Heath Ledger's Died As The Joker

Heath Ledger's final movie will be as The Joker in the next Batman instalment 'The Dark Knight'.

The Perth born actor had completed work on the film before his untimely death today in New York.

'The Dark Knight' is due for release mid-year.

Ledger is the first Joker since Jack Nicholson's role in the 1989 Tim Burton movie.

The Joker, that was the most fun I had, probably ever playing a character," he seen saying in a clip posted on YouTube.

The video shows an out of character, nervous and on-edge Ledger. He has his arms crossed during the interview and is fidgeting throughout the interview. For a major Hollywood star, he looks unprepared and not dressed for the camera. His hair is messy and he has trouble stringing his words together.

Ledger died in New York today at the age of 28.
