We all lost an incredible actor early this year when talented young Heath Ledger died from an accidental overdose of prescription drugs. We spoke with his co-stars in The Dark Knight, about Heath's final completed performance and all of them seem to feel that his scary, frenetic portrayal of The Joker merits an Oscar nomination. This reporter agrees. All the chatter about depression etc. seems to be negated by Heath's fellow actors and director who have nothing but positive memories of the last working days of a phenomenal actor, gone before his time. Here's to you, Heath, praise from your friends....

From Aaron Eckhart (who plays Harvey Dent/Two Face)

TeenHollywood: You and Heath were in the same make-up trailer getting these two weird faces put on, right? What was that like?

Aaron: Yeah. He brought in his iPod that had more songs than EMI. He had all this stuff going. It was cool, it was a lot of fun because of all the noises you make getting into character. Heath used to always be throwing back his hair. It was a lot of fun in that make-up trailer discovering our characters together.

TeenHollywood: What was he like to work with?
