Heath Ledger Directed Cause An Effect Music Video

Hollywood Grind — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 17:52:12 +0000

Heath Ledger directed a music video for single Cause An Effect shortly before he died. The Australian rapper N’fa Forster-Jones for the band No Fixed Abode is a boyhood friend of Ledger’s.

Forster-Jones posted the Cause An Effect video on his YouTube and MySpace pages on Thursday.

Forster-Jones, who had been friends with Ledger since they were toddlers in the Australian city of Perth, said the video was shot in one day in the garage of Ledger’s beachside apartment. Forster-Jones described the day the music video was filmed:

"He gave me a call one morning, as he often did at crazy hours, and he’s like, ’N’fa, I’ve got this idea for a video.’"
"He was basically running around directing me each shot. It was a really cool day."
"Every day I count my blessings that I got to have him direct this piece of art."

The video was first shown at a collection of Ledger’s work at the Rome Film Festival earlier this month.

It’s easy to imagine all the great work Ledger would have created had he lived to a ripe old age.

Heath Ledger Last Movie The Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus

Hollywood Grind — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 00:18:52 +0000

The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus was the last movie Heath Ledger worked on, and died before finishing. The video trailer shows, not only how incredible the visuals in this movie are, but also shows Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell, and Jude Law, standing in to play Heath’s character Tony after Heath died.

Yahoo has another copy of this trailer.

It’s still hard to imagine that Heath will never make another movie.

The movie hits theaters October 16.

Heath Ledger Insurance Company Will Not Pay Out

Hollywood Grind — Tue, 30 Sep 2008 15:32:42 +0000

Matilda Rose will inherit the $20 million estate of Heath Ledger, after his family decided to give it to her because it was the right thing to do. Heath’s life insurance company, ReliaStar Life Insurance Company, however, said they believe Heath’s death may have been suicide, so they won’t pay out the death benefit of $10 million. The company said they will perform their own investigation, which will include talking to Mary-Kate Olsen. Police already rule Heath’s death accidental, but they aren’t always right.

ReliaStar’s attorneys are going to take the depositions of MKO, as well as the masseuse who discovered him dead. They’ll also be interviewing his doctors, agents, co-stars on films, psychologists, and many others.

Matilda’s lawyers say ReliaStar is violating California law which does not allow insurance companies to reexamine applications after the death of the policyholder. In other words, the insurance company would have had to do their due diligence when Heath applied for the insurance, and not now that he has paid his premiums and died.

Matilda’s lawyers say ReliaStar are acting "maliciously, fraudulently and/or oppressively."

The life insurance policy was written June of 2007, only six months before Heath died.

According a news report, 2 year-old Matilda Rose will inherit the entire $20 million Heath Ledger estate. The report says the family made the decision to give up their right to the money for the benefit of Matilda.

Michael Caine Confirms Depp and Hoffman in Next Batman

Hollywood Grind — Tue, 09 Sep 2008 19:47:34 +0000

Michael Caine says Johnny Depp will be The Riddler, and Philip Seymour Hoffman will be The Penguin, in the next Batman blockbuster movie:

"I was with a Warner Bros. executive and I said, ‘Are we going to make another one?’ They said yeah. I said, ‘How the hell are we going to top Heath? And he says ‘I’ll tell you how you top Heath — Johnny Depp as The Riddler and Philip Seymour Hoffman as The Penguin.’ I said, ‘S–t, they’ve done it again!’”

If only Heath Ledger were still alive to make this a threesome.

Heath Ledger Drug Investigation Closed

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 04:25:27 +0000

Despite getting a subpoena from the DEA today, Mary-Kate Olsen will not have to testify before a Grand Jury. Just as suddenly as the DEA subpoenaed Mary-Kate, they have officially closed their investigation to determine how Health Ledger obtained the drugs that killed him.

Something smells fishy here. We are hearing that the U.S. Attorney’s Office shut down the investigation because it was full of hot air, and that some DEA agents used the investigation as an excuse to get close to celebrities, and movie sets.

Mary-Kate Olsen Subpoenaed By DEA In Heath Ledger Investigation

Hollywood Grind — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 19:23:56 +0000

Mary-Kate Olsen has been issued a subpoena by the Drug Enforcement Administration office in New York, requiring her to testify in front of a grand jury. Mary-Kate had issued a statement through her attorney saying she had told Feds everything she knows already, but also said she wanted immunity from prosecution to tell Feds more.

The DEA is investigating five different medications that were found in Heath Ledger’s body at the time of his death, three of which he’d gotten from doctors in Texas and Los Angeles. Officials are trying to determine how he got the OxyContin and Vicodin found in his apartment without a legal prescription.

Mary-Kate could invoke the Fifth Amendment against self-incrimination, but that would only make her look like she had even more to hide. Mary-Kate has now become the center of this investigation.

Mary-Kate Olsen Denies Heath Ledger Drug Connection

Hollywood Grind — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 23:39:27 +0000

Mary-Kate Olsen, according to reports, asked for immunity from prosecution to tell what she knows about the drugs in the cocktail that killed Heath Ledger. Upon seeing the report today, Mary-Kate’s attorney Michael Miller issued the following statement:

"Despite tabloid speculation, Mary-Kate Olsen had nothing whatsoever to do with the drugs found in Heath Ledger’s home or his body, and she does not know where he obtained them. Regarding the government’s investigation, at Ms. Olsen’s request, we have provided the government with relevant information including facts in the chronology of events surrounding Mr. Ledger’s death and the fact that Ms. Olsen does not know the source of the drugs Mr. Ledger consumed. "

I wasn’t speculating on Mary-Kate’s drug connection, but on something more serious. I’ll ask again. Did Mary-Kate do something illegal that resulted in Heath’s death, or did she not call for help that could have prevented Heath’s death?

Cops say the masseuse who found Ledger’s body last January spent nine minutes making three separate calls to Olsen before calling 911, then called her again after paramedics arrived. After getting the calls, cops say Mary-Kate sent her bodyguard to go check on the situation. Why did the masseuse need to call Mary-Kate in the first place?

Mary-Kate Olsen is Hiding Something

Hollywood Grind — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 15:31:41 +0000

Mary-Kate Olsen has refused to be interviewed by federal investigators probing the accidental drug death of her close friend Heath Ledger unless she receives immunity from prosecution, according to the New York Post.

Mary-Kate’s lawyer has repeatedly refused attempts by the feds to question Olsen, who was the first person called after her masseuse discovered Ledger’s body in his SoHo apartment in January.

What is Mary-Kate hiding that would make her fear prosecution? Did Mary-Kate do something illegal that resulted in Heath’s death, or did she not call for help that could have prevented Heath’s death?
