Actors Donate Paychecks to Heath Ledger’s Daughter
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Adventure, Casting, Celeb News, Upcoming Releases,
Back in February, it was announced that Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell would all be chipping in to complete Heath Ledger’s final project. Now we’re learning the trio had more than their fellow thespian in mind when they agreed to help. They were also thinking of Ledger’s daughter, Matilda.
Heath, who died of an accidental overdose back in January, had been working on The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus at the time of his passing. Although it was feared the magical movie would have to be scrapped, director Terry Gilliam was able to have other actors play different versions of Tim, Ledger’s character.
According to Gilliam, the generosity of the fill-ins extended beyond the film’s set. Out of concern for 2-year-old Matilda, the three fathers donated their paychecks to young girl.

Now a new report claims that Heath (and Terry) may be getting a little help from a group of friends. According to Ain’t It Cool News, Jude Law, Colin Farrell and Johnny Depp will all be helping to fill the gaps in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.
Parnassus revolves around a theater troupe and their magical mirror. Audiences members are magically taken through the mirror to have their imaginations explored.
