The Black Knight.............?

Question

Man! I loved that movie didn't you? Well anyways I was wondering how did they finish the movie even though the actor playing the joker died during the making of the film. Did they find a replacement or what?

Answer 1

Heath Ledger finished the movie well before he died.

Answer 2

You aren't having a very good day are you. "The Black Knight" is a Martin Lawrence movie and he's feeling fine. Heath Ledger died after the principle photography was finished on "The Dark Knight," but he was in the middle of filming a Terry Gillium movie when he died and it will be interesting to see that movie when it is released, since Johnny Depp and one other actor were used to finish that film.

Anyway, you don't strike me as someone who pays much attention to details, but that isn't unusual on this venue.

Answer 3

Yes they did finish though they couldn't make any changes if they needed too since he's dead. That's why at the end, they left the Joker hanging at the end.

Answer 4

He finished what was needed for the movie before his death. However, they couldn't reshoot and perfect lines with him like the other actors did because, well, he was dead.
