joaquin is the best joker but heath has the best portrayal of him in a batman film. Even now my opinion still changes abt who is the best joker they’re both so good
Yep. I was one of those people. I thought Batman would be ruined. I loved him as an actor but this heart throb playing the JOKER? What the fuck!? Boy how wrong I was….
It’s weird that we’ll probably never see him do the voice without the makeup… It’s so convincing of a character that it’s almost hard to believe it was him the whole time…
heath ledger is so unrecognizable when he played joker, his voice changed his face changed everything is so unrecognizable... I was so impressed when I watched The dark knight.
As much as I wish to this day being able to see Heath return as the Joker, the fact that we can’t get a reprisal makes the character even more legendary and immortalized because of how good of a job heath did and how amazing that film was
The movie wasn't that good, it wasn't crap but it was far from a masterpiece. The fact it was HL last complete, and somewhat superb performance is the only real reason it made money.
@0ne.p01nt.zer0 Zer0 IMDb is probably the most credible judging system & this movie is in the top 5 greatest films of all time along side “The godfather” . Just because you don’t like it means nothing your in the minority on that.
Not sure if people notice this. But the way he’s grabbing his arms and coughing. He’s literally having a mental battle in head at this moment. 😢he’s trying to calm himself down.
Drugs. He's doing the typical awkward running of the arms, his speech is at times coherent then suddenly collapses, all his mannerisms scream I NEED A HIT while he trudges through all the typical questions. Which can be annoying for someone so addicted that they're just thinking of the next session, but sure yeah Joker, ok so(I swear we'll have enough time to talk about him after the movie comes out but ok um the Joker...
@@B3n0viT3 It could just be anxiety, he acts exactly like I act when i am uncomfortable, the arm grabbing for example is a classic self soothing mechanism. Or it could be a combination of that and withdrawal. Either way he was a nervous/ sensitive bloke, he is edgy and fidgety in almost every interview I've watched of him. But that sensitivity was in his favor when acting no doubt, he was a perfectionist and his Joker portrayal will go down in history as one of the best acting performances of all time.
I didn’t realize how humble he is. Saying he couldn’t measure up to jack nicholson when most people think, including me, that his interpretation of joker is the best joker performance and/or acting performance of all time.
"I think its gonna be good" Creeping on 20 years later and it's widely considered to be the best movie of 2008, the best super hero movie ever, and one of the best movies of all time. Sad he never got to see how beloved it was, in large part due to him
I still remember watching the dark knight trailer, and not having any clue who played the joker. And Heath was one of if not my favorite actor by that point. Then I read online later, that he was playing him, and I thought "this must be an old article, and they must've changed their minds, and changed actors". I still just couldn't believe it was Heath. Then I read more that he was for sure playing him, and was just blown away. It is without a doubt, my favorite performance in any movie.
One of the best actors of all time. Heath Ledger is someone you couldn’t forget if you tried. I miss seeing him on screen and wonder what other amazing characters he would have created. We will always remember you, Heath.
How insane to remember that the role of the Joker before Heath Ledger was untouched sacred ground, owned only by Jack Nicholson and his great performance. Nobody thought anyone else could pull it off. And then Heath Ledger came out with THAT performance, set the new standard, and now everyone's like "who would DARE follow up the Joker after Heath". Just a funny thought I had about knee-jerk reactions, and how nobody really knows what they're talking about until they've seen the tangible thing they're shitting all over online.
Which is funny because Jack's Joker wasn't anything special. Even before this movie was ever announced, I thought it was a lackluster performance. He just played himself in clown makeup.
It's so bizarre that he did the Joker the way he did it, the voice is 200% opposite of his normal voice minus his accent, he was just so brilliant it was scary, I wonder if the Jokers physical mannerisms was the director or Heath, the scene in the Police car sticking his head out the window and all the things he did, just a fantastic interpretation, one of the best jobs of acting I can recall .
The most inspirational performance as a villian in any film I can remember absolutely mind blowing love the film and this version of the joker the best and theres no comparison 🔥
Now I just picture Heath seeing Batman Begins and when they show the Joker card he probably thought like the rest of us "Can't wait to see who they'll get to play him"...
I think he had other make up on under it. Watch the scene were he's in the military outfit without the make up. There's make up to make him look like an older man.
I can tell ( from experience ), heath’s drugs are wearing off during this interview. The arm rubbing, the uncomfortableness and awkward movements… This is known as the itch. Prescription meds, opiates, opioids mixed with benzodiazepines - is essential heroin. It’s a shame he got into taking the meds for whatever reason. Acute overdose can happen to anyone. Doesn’t matter if you’ve taken that same combo and or dose before.
Oxy isn't heroin. That's a dumb lie you dopeheads like to tell. You don't nod out and get blasted into another universe mentally on oxy. Heroin is way more potent and powerful. That's like saying 1 beer and 12oz moonshine are the same thing. You can't distort a fact that they are both opiates and then remotely compare the high. This is true with EVERYTHING in life (Food, cars, clothes, tvs, fucking anything). So, stop saying oxy/opiates and heroin are the same. They are very distinct.
Anyone else notice the mannerism of how he moves his tongue around in his mouth? As the Joker he did that a lot. Looked like tardive dyskinesia. Strange to see a similar mannerism in an interview. What an incredible actor.
Even though he only lived to be 28, he was one of the most versatile actors and the amount of various roles was astounding. He truly was one of a kind and if he were alive he would continue to have different performances. So many phenomenal actors praised him and you can see why he was beloved.
In hindsight it’s eerily creepy in how Heath says it was the most fun “he’ll ever have” as opposed to when he self corrected himself saying the most fun “he’s ever had.” Really sad but so creepy to hear a bit of foreshadowing in this interview.
1:10. You can see the Joker leaking out a little here as he’s talking, the intensity in his eyes and his voice. Such a great actor. So good in Brokeback too.
You can tell he’s in a manic state. He loved playing Joker, he says it himself. But you can tell he is not right at this time. He’s dealing with shit. It’s relatable. It’s so human.
Jack Nicolson and Joaquin Phoenix both did fantastic playing the Joker, but in both performances you can still see Jack & Joaquin. But Heath’s performance, there’s no trace of him personally, he completely transforms into his version of the Joker, absolutely brilliant!!
You can tell when he licks and even his right side cheek still is a tad weird, he still was doing the joker without even trying. Heath made me love a villain. What an INCREDIBLE actor he was. 😕
I remember watching The Dark Knight for the first time back in 2008 when I was 16 years old when Heath Ledger played The Joker I was shocked his performance as the Joker he totally nailed it I was really impressed he is one of the greatest actors of all time and he is a legend
Heath we miss you so much. You are terribly missed and God knows why he chose to take you home, but you made such an impact. I hope you read this from heaven. We love you sir. You are forever loved
Cause the Joker personna actually persisted on him...it chase him...it hunted him...he saw it in every moment in every shadow, corner, space or reflection...it destroy him.
❤ 15 years later and I still miss the guy. I especially miss my tween fangirl swooning moments that embarrassed my friends. (While they were swooning over sparkling vampires, starting many contentious debates.) I miss the opportunity he most likely would've reprised the Joker for DKR. 😔❤
Heath Ledger about The Dark Knight: I think it's gonna be good. Film releases and becomes one of the best movies ever made, best comic book movie ever, sits at number 3 at imdb's best movies ever list, easily becomes a modern classic. Yeah it turned out to be good Heath. :D And also you won an oscar. Rest in peace legend.
This interview is haunting to me, because if you watch pre-joker interviews, he is totally different. You can tell from this interview that playing the Joker changed him.
The inflections in his voice and his facial gestures were all done so perfectly that despite being so unpredictable and wild they did not seem contrived whatsoever.
It makes me sad to hear Heath say that he wouldn’t want to ruin Jack Nicholson’s portrayal of Joker if he was to be Joker in a Tim Burton movie. How insane is it that at the time, Jack Nicholson’s version was put on the pedestal, and Heath recognized that. Yet ever since then, Heath’s Joker has been the one that set the example. His Joker still reigns as the prime live-action portrayal. And because I was young at the time of the movie, his Joker was larger than life. I wasn’t aware of Heath as an actor, only Joker as a character. And even grown up as a young adult, it’s still hard as hell to discern between the two. You can’t see Heath at all in his performance, it’s like Joker was some spirit that possessed Heath’s body. With Jack Nicholson’s Joker, it was the opposite. Burton’s Joker was just Nicholson dressed up as Joker at a Halloween party. So what Heath did with Joker was really so effing good that I consider it a magic trick, even better than making a pencil disappear. I wish he was still around to grace us with his presence. He seemed like a really good, genuine guy like Keanu Reeves is to our current generation.
At 0:44 you can see his face twitch. And moments where he speaks with such raw body-language momentarily. You can tell this fella was an outright energy spawn!

It's a shame he never got to do proper press interviews for The Dark Knight, his Joker insights would've been so great to hear
he was my favorite live action Joker, God bless
At 0:44 you can see his face twitch. And moments where he speaks with such raw body-language momentarily.
You can tell this fella was an outright energy spawn!
