The Joker: 15 Crazy Things You Didn't Know About Heath Ledger’s Character 

Facts Verse just saw Joker movie it was good and Joaquin Phoenix acting was awesome but no one can replace Heath Ledger acting as the Joker at least for me

The guy who plays Author is my favorite whatever.

Facts verse

Apples, oranges, bananas

Joaquin Phoenix

I’m sure he knew

Oh he knows

Hes so fucking good at being the joker. Phenix does him good tho. I love his prefromance to

Or to return as the Joker 😥 we will never get to see more scenes

He knew I bet he knew in his heart

Chose*

@@seylur2829 I think we know what he's saying no need to correct it's fine.

MrBigwolf yeah

@@TophatMilo yeah what? You agreeing?

MrBigwolf yeah I am 😅 no one cares how you spell things if we still know what it says

THAT IS SADLY SOMEONE THAT WAS OBSESSED AND MENTALLY SICK. I FIND THIS VERY SAD. HE LOST HIS LIFE DUE TO HIS OBSESSION WITH THIS EVIL JOKER, AND ACTING. IT IS TRUE WITH MANY GOOD ARTISTS.

This isn’t what happened at all. That’s a narrative.

So, this sounds like a totally sane person?

I think he was the best joker by far but I think the same thing about Christian bales Batman portrayal as well and now look who’s Batman 🤣😂🤣

Mel O did he overdose?

Ezy prplx yes, that’s what they say

Rip in peace

The Doomguy WHAT💀💀

I think the fvck Not He meant rest in piece.

Nuke Duke him and Jack Nicholson

For now. Maybe in the future there will be better, it just might take a very.. very long time..

I like the new joker just a bit better

Doug Mertz I agree

saint lewis I don’t really pay much attention to what society have to say, I personally think that no one before played the role quite like he did. That’s just my opinion. I’m not saying that because he’s passed on or that any other Joker was crap. It’s my opinion and you know what the say about opinions

awh man don’t remind me they would make the best movies

plus they're both Aussies

Yeh....

Heath wouldn't do it

Heith ledgers joker doesn’t seem like he would match up with her harley Quinn... I mean, can u imagine heith ledgers joker showing compassion to ANYONE?? Cuz I rlly can’t lol. As fair as a couple pair goes, Jared Leto’s joker and Margo’s Harley Quinn seem to work together rly well. Harley Quinn is obviously played way better and stands out in each scene much more but as far as combining personalities goes, idk if Heith’s would work with that Harley Quinn. That’s like sayin Joaquin’sPheonix Joker and Harley Quinn would make a great movie, simply bcuz Phoenix’s joker was obvi waaaaay better than Jared Leto’s version. But...idk if that would work out. I mean, even Phoenix version of Joker would probly have a better connection with Harley Quinn than Heith’s Joker. So idk I just can’t see Heith’s Joker having an intimate connection like that with ANYONE tbh

jared leto lmao

@@zzz_phyr That's true, but that's only because they're on different playing fields. Heath's Joker is at the peak of insanity. Joaquin's Joker is slowly descending into madness. They aren't playing the "same Joker" in a way.

Jaoquin is also good

Evangelina de Sânge Yup.

@@zzz_phyr shut the fuck up

Mr Spook He didn’t just play Joker. He was Joker.

@@rastaewabeach true

Better than Joaquin Phoenix?

@@remodluna7868 of course, no doubt..

Dio da Rato We shouldn’t compare the two. Both completely different takes.

Yes, absolutely.

This is the only logical answer

Lmfao 😂😂😂

I did too

😐

same!! 🥺

Same 😖

Thanks for watching, Doctor Goop!

HAHA Ikr

Right? Wtf

Ok

🤣🤣

Ig he likes friends

Thank you

I was having serious depression from 2016...no one knew it until october 2019...Ive turned 19 this 24 feb so....I was just saying....have a nice day ....btw Im on medication now ;)

Ya...

Yeah, it was an accidentally fatal mix of different meds. :'( He did not overdose, and he especially didn't overdose on purpose and espeeeecially not on illegal drugs. That was so weirdly portrayed in the media that most people still don't know what really happened. He had a bronchitis or sth like that, and took different meds for that and additionally a sleeping pill. That's the only "problem" he really had, sleeping problems from time to time. He was not suicidal, and he loved his daughter, he would have never killed himself on purpose. Also he had almost finished his next role (in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus) when it happened. It didn't have enything to do with the Dark Knight movie. Heath was my favorite actor since his teenage years, it's so sad

Lisa Kogelnik facts But the mix of meds made him accidentally overdose so yes he did overdose but accidentally.

lmao what’s the relevance of this comment

But Tommy Wiseu wants to be the Joker

@@onlyasithdealsinabsolutesd6526 ehem pls let that kiddo feel like he is a wisdom teller

Oh these Eminem Fans are so deep 🤡

Heath never wanted to play Batman, Christopher Nolan even asked Heath to audition for him and he refused, same way he refused to audition for Sam Ramis Spiderman. Look up the Rich Eisen Show, Christopher Nolan talks about how he asked Ledger and he wasn’t interested.

Marc Bryan Paguinto yep they lost me there

Arthur Fleck

I was wondering like did it just sound like Arthur or did he actually say Arthur

I'm glad I wasn't the only one that caught that😂😂

Marc Bryan Paguinto I noticed that😂

Arthur IS joker

Facts verse be disrespecting lord alfred

Alfred is stronger then marvel and dc combined

Brormand du jo dansker

Elias Kader var helt forvirret men har gilli som profilbillede ahah

It makes the fights look more real. Respect for letting Bale beat the crap out of him. 👍

We absolutely agree! Thank you for your watching our video. May Heath find peace 🙏

Very Well said & very much truth I miss him aswell I liked him as the Joker but my most favorite of his work will always be Sir William Thatcher

So funny you said that. Because i liked him alottt in that movie. A knights tale? Was that it. So awsome. I was going to reference it but i held back.

Thanks for watching, Adrian!

Kevin Pederson yup

i thought that was a baby picture holy shit

Well shes heaths daughter.... But i also thought it was heaths childhood photo

Yeah, that’s kind of how genetics work. You should be surprised if she didn’t look like him.

I thought that was Heath when he was a boy. Didn't hear the part quite well.

Joaquin better

@Leon Jones I agree Mark Hamill IS The Joker, no one has anything on what he brings

Yep I don’t care what anyone else says he is the best.

@@user-cc9vf2vq4l nah, he was good but ledger will always be the joker

Leon Jones ah, the old voice actor versus actual actor on screen debate. HL had perfect mannerisms, MH had a good voice, HL had the physical presence, MH had a good voice, HL portrayed madness, anarchy and chaos with every sinew of his being on set, MH had a good voice. Getting through yet?

Heath also never wanted to play Batman, Christopher Nolan even asked Heath to audition for him and he refused, same way he refused to audition for Sam Ramis Spiderman. Look up the Rich Eisen Show, Christopher Nolan talks about how he asked Ledger and he wasn’t interested.

And how could he have auditioned for Batman in Dark Knight? It was a sequel.

He did lock himself up in a hotel for 6 weeks, he did method act just his version of it; but yes at the end of the day he’d turn it off, and between takes did want peoples opinion, however he kept a little note book and if someone did something he’d write how the joker would’ve reacted, so his version of method acting

Leto Minecraft

😂😂😂😂

1. Phoenix ........

Joaquin 1

Phoenix is awesome, he deserved that oscar.. He's my favourite,but so is Heath too :D i'd say 1. Heath & Phoenix

Have you ever heard the phrase An artists' work is worth nothing until they are dead? To Heath, this was his masterpiece.

dude he was great in broke back mountain

I don’t think that applies for Heath. Whether or not Heath died this performance still would’ve made movie history

We agree, Adam!

@@FactsVerse too bad half your facts are wrong In this video. For starters Heath never wanted to play Batman, Christopher Nolan even asked Heath to audition for him and he refused, same way he refused to audition for Sam Ramis Spiderman. Look up the Rich Eisen Show, Christopher Nolan talks about how he asked Ledger and he wasn’t interested.

Same

Bro I was like who tf is arthur did I miss something??😂

@@tweekpebbles8890 yeah, you missed watching JOKER

@@gabriellegillioz8683 alrighty then?

Gabrielle Gillioz gotta say the joker movie is way to overrated

Glad to know that you're a fan of HL! May he find peace 🙏

in my opinion Joaquin is a better joker, i also love Heath

Nah Joaquin Phoenix was really good as well

He didn't watch the joker movie

Jack Nicholson Was the best Joker (Opinion)

@@thecomedicspecialist7227 every joker ever sucked except joaquin and heath,change my mind oh wait u cant lololololol trololololol peanus beeep

Thor’s #1 fan cardiac arrest not suicide....

Sky loverMC I kind of remember he shoots himself in “Monster Ball.” I’m an old lady, Sky love MC, bear with me...👍🤣

I cant unsee it

For a second , I thought the same

Uhhhh John Cena has a hair?

Yesss

How do you know how john cena looks?

Was thinking the Same l

Yo that actually makes a lot of sense, if the film technically isnt cannon with the DCU, why not take some creative liberty and pay homage to arguably the best joker?

Cameron M. C. Exactly man. They knew as soon as they had the idea to make the movie that it would be put up against Heaths joker.

Cameron M. C. it’s canon just not in dcu it’s dcu dark basically

Thanks for watching!

Randy Mania but Christian Bale has already been cast for the Dark Night, so that’s not really likely...

Bale is the better part for Batman ! He is the better actor, in terms of looks body and the mannerism. He is one of the best when not the best Batman of all time. Sad for him that he died in young years.

Randy Mania thanks for that info cause I was questioning who would deny Heath?

Randy Mania Christina bale was already chosen to be Batman throughout the whole dark knight trilogy. It wouldn’t make sense to change the actor for Batman in a movie series

Heath was asked to be batman in Batman Begins, but he refused straightaway. After the first movie be made, Heath got the realistic style Nolan wanted to present and he loved it. Soon, Heath called Nolan for casting him as Joker even before the script been written.

Exactly what i thought, i scrolled through the comments to see if anyone else noticed

I noticed that to I was like who is Arthur

dark shadow Arthur fleck

@@endermic1306 Oh the joker?

My thoughts exactly how do you not know it's bill Wayne Alfonzo his Butler serina kylo and Edwardo nigma duh

Funky Gomez then comes out jauguin pheonixs joker

Joaquin Phoenix is better tho lol

Lol no

@@uzivertical1239 lol no

Funky Gomez Yikes Joaquin is serious competition Watch the movie

SCAVENGER GAMING it did say Health at 2:45

"Typed," not "said." No wonder you other guys missed it.....

@SCAVENGER GAMING yes he said it right but he spelt it wrong

6:30

No lol

I dont know who heath is but if your talking about me then yes i am the joker

Was

Exxagerations ! Heath was a nice guy, nothing like the joker... he was just excellent actor

No idiot

It’s easy when you are Jared Leto playing Joker

Heath: “C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon." C'mon. C'mon, I want you to do it. I want you to do it. C'mon!… C'mon. C'mon, I want you to do it, I want you to do it. C'mon, hit me! Hit me, hit me! C'mon, HIT ME!"

@@adamkevorkian8685 Batman: AHHHHHHHH

@@JJS595 Bale: “Bloody sake mate, I can’t punch you.” Heath: “I didn’t think American Psycho was good” Bale: “You SOB, roll cameras I’m beating this mofo” *Heath licks lips*

Thanks for watching!

@Ostia Hermes ??

@Ostia Hermes oh ok. I understand.. nevertheless, he's no longer on the big screen or contributing cinematically so he's still a loss in that manner.

Heath never wanted to play Batman, Christopher Nolan even asked Heath to audition for him and he refused, same way he refused to audition for Sam Ramis Spiderman. Look up the Rich Eisen Show, Christopher Nolan talks about how he asked Ledger and he wasn’t interested.

As well, how you gonna recast Batman after Batman Begins, just use your fucking brain…

Bull shit

Ct Tims fuck u he was a great person even before the Joker

Same, he’s honestly just a sweetheart I loved him in 10 things I hate about you

Same here.... Loved him since I watched 'The Patriot'

10 things i hate

Tf?

The hell you talking about? He accidentally overdosed on his meds, chill out.

Half the “Facts” in this video are wrong. Heath never wanted to play Batman, Christopher Nolan even asked Heath to audition for him and he refused, same way he refused to audition for Sam Ramis Spiderman. Look up the Rich Eisen Show, Christopher Nolan talks about how he asked Ledger and he wasn’t interested. And that’s just the first fact in the video, it all goes down hill from there. Video is a fucking disgrace to the man, the legend that is Heath.

@@adamkevorkian8685 Another was the claim that Ledger was the first to win an Oscar after he died. Untrue. Peter Finch got one also, for "Network," in '76.

Exactly!!! Heath never wanted to play Batman, Christopher Nolan even asked Heath to audition for him and he refused, same way he refused to audition for Sam Ramis Spiderman. Look up the Rich Eisen Show, Christopher Nolan talks about how he asked Ledger and he wasn’t interested.

Not true

Billy Olsen yes serial killers are pos dosent mean Heath didnt get the idea from a psychopath like bundy especially for a psychopathic character like the joker

Heath licked his lips to help keep the prostic lips he had on to stay stuck to his lips because the glue would wear off during the long hours if filming

Billy Olsen Well spoken 👍🏻

@@aydentheninja877 killing is bad either way.

Half the facts In this video are lies. Off the bat Heath never wanted to play Batman, Christopher Nolan even asked Heath to audition for him and he refused, same way he refused to audition for Sam Ramis Spiderman. Look up the Rich Eisen Show, Christopher Nolan talks about how he asked Ledger and he wasn’t interested.

Thanks for sharing this, Dylan!

The bank scene tho! It made me anticipate the rest of the film

dude where on this planet is loki the best villian?

Haha

Lol jokers the best and dc is better just saying lol

Popeye21 dc isn’t better at making movies (except for a few, like this one) but marvel takes that spot. Dc makes good tv shows though

@@facilityguard970 we don't give a flying fck about movies bro yeah every Christopher Nolan movie was dope af but true followers of dc or marvel know it's either comics or animations so stfu your comment is stupid jesus fcking christ I marvel at how annoying you movie watching douche bags are

Don't worry. The man's just brain dead.

Brandon Williams it’s not author it’s Arthur 🤣
