He didn't want that kind of image.

He has to still work, you know to pay for the roof over his head and food. His family even used to nag him to just accept roles because he'd sit around so long waiting for the right ones, as most of the films he got offered where teen flicks and he was labelled 'a pretty boy' and he didnt want that.

You can read about him all over the internet, particularly right now. I wondered why I hadn't seen him in much so I did the research to see why.

He acted in the roles he didnt like when the roles he wanted werent there and he had no other way of financing his life. He hasn't been in many films at all considering the time he's been acting.

You can read about him, it says it all over the internet. Its hardly a secret. Why do you think he wasn't in more films like 10 things I hate about you? He was offered loads of parts in similar films.

I dont need to explain why I think he'd prefer to be remembered for Brokeback mountain where he played a 'high-risk' role rather than a pretty boy film like 10 things i hate about you.

Heath Ledger - Biography

Re: Heath Ledger found dead in apartment
 
"I only do this because I'm having fun. The day I stop having fun, I'll just walk away. I wasn't going to have fun doing a teen movie again.... I don't want to do this for the rest of my life....I don't want to spend the rest of my youth doing this in this industry. There's so much I want to discover." - Vanity Fair (August 2000)

[On his choice of film projects] I feel like I'm wasting time if I repeat myself. I can't say I'm proud of my work. It's the same with everything I do: the day I say 'It's good' is the day I should start doing something else.

Well if he liked doing them or not, he was still bloody good in them. The bits that i've seen of his portrail of The Joker are amazing!

RIP Heath.

well on IMDB it says he got $3,000,000 for knights tale, not bad in my books;)

I think his general attitude towards acting makes it look like he was in it more for his passion of the job rather than the money.

And if this IS a suicide, which I personally doubt, it would show that money doesn't buy happiness.

The reports I read said that he was having trouble sleeping and that he complained that a sleeping pill only gave him an hours sleep - looks like an accidental overdose to me.

Yeh thats what I said earlier. I think thats more likely than anything else, given the fact that there was nothing obvious to indicate he'd killed himself like a note.
