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.

My deepest sympathy with the family and friends of Heaths in this time of tremendous loss. He was a beautiful, talented, and very young man taken far too soon. My love and prayers are with the ones that loved him. Gone but never forgotten~

I can't help but think about my own mortality since Heath's death. We were the same age. It reminds me to always tell loved ones how much you love them. Heath will live on in his films which we are so lucky to have. Heaven has a most beautiful angel.

Its still such a shock that you are gone. A talented actor, and a beautiful person inside and out. May you find the rest you were trying to find. My thoughts and prayers are with Heaths family. You will be missed by many always.

Since I saw him in "The Patriot" I thought he was not only a good looking actor, but very talented. Seeing him in other roles just proved it! Loved him in "A Knight's Tale" and can't wait to see him in "The Dark Knight". I was shocked to hear of his death and I feel for his family and I know his daughter will miss not having him around but he will always be looking down on her. She was the love of his life and the look in his eyes when he spoke of her in interviews was evident of his love. God Bless Heath and his family ... he will be sorely missed.
