Hvem spillede jokeren i the dark knight rises?
Heath Ledger
Elleve måneder efter Ledgers død, den 23. december 2008, meddelte Jake Coyle, der skrev for Associated Press, at "Heath Ledgers død blev kåret som den bedste underholdningshistorie i 2008 af amerikanske avis- og tv-redaktører, som Associated Press havde spurgt". Han hævdede, at dette til dels var et resultat af "chokket og forvirringen" omkring omstændighederne omkring Ledgers død, samt på grund af Ledgers "arv ... i en rundhåndet anmelderrost præstation som Jokeren i årets største kassesucces The Dark Knight".
