Newsflash

  • Heath Ledger and Sean Penn are in talks to star in a top-secret drama by writer-director Terrence Malick, the man behind Badlands and The Thin Red Line. Ledger would play a lead role opposite an actress, yet to be cast, with Penn taking a supporting role. Details of the plot have not been revealed - often the case with Malick's films - but an insider told the Hollywood Reporter it was a "complex drama". Filming is set to begin in March.
  • Tree Of Life’s journey has been long and arduous. Like a third grade game of Oregon Trail, the script’s voyage has been chock-full of deserting actors, money shortages, and lots and lots of dead oxen. A few years ago, Colin Farrell was in talks to play the principle protagonist, but after a month long shooting schedule in India was announced, the well-endowed actor cut bait. Rumors once again began recirculating yesterday, and Farrell is nowhere to be found.

    According to The Hollywood Reporter, both Sean Penn and Heath Ledger are amidst negotiations to take up the supporting and staring roles respectively. The general plotline follows, well, no one really knows what the Terrence Malick script is about. I’m guessing it’s not a sequel to Fast Times At Ridgemont High or Lords Of Dogtown. Maybe someday. Production is set to begin in March; so, expect to be seeing this during the Summer of ‘09 or slightly sooner.

For the person I never met: Heath Ledger
I was only a teenager when I first saw Heath in '10 things I hate about you'. His face, his voice, his cheekbones, his eyes. I simply loved him. Especially since the girl he falls in love with there had my name. Ever since I have 'grown up' with him, he was the actor of my generation. I've watched all his movies, and every single one of them meant something as I have associated it with an event in my life. I always thought that I had so many things in common with him, in looks and character so many similarities, and that is rare to happen even with your own family most of the time. The fact he couldn't sleep, cause he couldn't stop thinking, he didn't like repeating things cause he thought he was wasting his time. His father said he was 'an old spirit in a young person body', like mine used to say about me. And so many other things we had in common but even if those things were just coincidence, it doesn't matter, as you don't need excuses to love someone. I will miss him, his face is always in my head, the fact you can't change an event makes you realise how unfair is life. He was perfect in my eyes in so many ways!

I didnt even know Heath, but he left his imprint on me the same as Matilda's in stone....that will never vanish.

I always felt it was bazaar when people would grieve over someone they didn't even know...Now I know.

Heath, You are a Legend.

Legends never die...

Sleep Well x

I saw him in roar too and from than on I watched any movies I knew he was in....I never met him but wish I did but in interviews you could tell he was a kind soul...When I heard the news I could not believe it either...He was still so young so full of life...I was floored I sat their and started turning channels to make sure heard right....This is such a great loss, but he will always be loved and live on in his movies....Even now I still don't think it really has sank in..He is now in heaven looking after everyone he loved.But here is a little poem I wrote I tried to put more but nothing really made sense to me and I am not a writer but wanted to do something...

God made a wonderful person
He made his smile from the sun
He made his heart out of gold
In his eyes you could see hope
He made him as close to an angel
As ever one could be

heath:
you were a great actor, and you will be remembered that way, i find myself crying, crying over a man that i never knew, but touched my heart in many ways, we all have a little bit of heath in our hearts.
i wrote something like a poem

this is a bad dream
i want to wake up

want to find you there
and know that you are alright

but i know that's not the case
that you are now in a better place

that smile will be missed
and that sense of humour as well

i hope that you're up there
guarding over the ones you care

and still i don't know you
but i want to

it seems unfair that you're up there
but sooner or later we'll all be there


heath, rest in peace mate you will be missed, we will always see you in matilda.
there is not 1 thing i hate about you heath, not 1.

Heath Ledger
RIP 1979-2008

I am still trying to get my head around this tragedy. It all seems so surreal. I have been gutted, down, sad and cried so much over someone i never met. My love goes to all who were close and expecially Michelle and little Matilda.

I wrote this poem yesterday, it is posted in on numerous websites but i wanted to share it here. Only something little.

'Heath R.I.P 22/01/08'

When i first heard i didn't believe,
Numerous articles i had to retrieve.

The moment i figured the stories weren't fake,
Tears filled my eyes and my heart it did break.

I don't understand why i feel so sad,
When the honour of your presence i've never had.

I've simply adored you since your career began,
You are the great actor, i'm only a fan.

But the thought of your end i find hard to bare,
When the auditions pop up, you won't be there.

Matilda will grow without knowing her dad,
Good times spent with you will leave Michelle sad.

My love and my thoughts lie with those deep in your heart,
I pray that your spirits they never do part.

I can't believe that you're really gone,
To take such a wonderful soul simply is wrong.

You're one of the greatest talents this world has seen,
I hold you high in respects with my hero, James Dean.

Your memory will echo through time and through space,
I hope you rest in peace Heath, forever and always.


Melly xXx
