Will there be a Joker ''curse'' now?!
Question: With the recent passing of Heath Ledger, it is difficult to imagine anyone else replacing him in what could be his best role in a film. I was told last night that paparazzi was taking pictures of Jack Nicholson and that they asked him how he felt about Heath Ledger's death. Well, it was the first time he had heard about this so he said, "I warned him.", and carried on.
What could this possibly mean? We all know that before Jack Nicholson came around, the Joker role in a film was yet to find a suitable actor to fill it's shoes. And now knowing that Ledger took a big risk in accepting this role and being compared to Nicholson's version of the Joker, I am left wondering if there will be a curse on the Joker role. Just like the Superman role.

He said, "I warned him, I was taking Ambian and almost drove my car off a cliff..." had nothing to do with the movie, it was the prescription he was talking about.
i think no.u see its normal for actors/celebrities to relieve themselves with drugs (even though it's stupid for me) and in unfortunate cases led to overdose.
i'm seeing crispin glover as the next Joker...if there's gonna be next Batman movie with joker as the villain.
