Yeah, pretty sad news. Him being from Australia, all the news services, radio stations etc have been running the story non-stop. One of the Movie Channels on paytv is even running a movie marathon in memorium. Really liked his performances in Two Hands and Candy and the new Batman movie looks like being a cracker.

Interesting to see that the Joker character that Heath plays in the upcoming Dark Knight movie eerily resembles The Crow which was played by Brandon Lee who also died at the age of 28. :-(

I know, it sucks. Only 23 too. Hopefully it wasn't an overdose. Deaths from overdoses are the worst cause they're so uncalled for.

I agree. It is a shame when you see something like this happen to someone who apparently "has it all". I guess you never know someone's personal demons that leads to this type of drug abuse.

from what we're hearing here, there was no drug abuse. he smoked marijuana years ago, but quit. apparently he was prescribed ambien for sleeping problems, and was also taking anti-depressants. there are a lot of reports about ambien making people do some strange things, like driving cars off cliffs (jack nicholson), and that in combination with the anti-depressants would make anyone "stupid". his family is devastated, as are the friends he has had since childhood.
