When this Hollywood star passed away, his daughter was devastated by his sudden absence. Tragically, she was also excluded from his will. Concerned for her welfare, three of his co-stars generously gave up their salaries for her. This renowned actor was celebrated for his role as The Joker in “The Dark Knight,” among other notable performances in “Lords of Dogtown” and “I’m Not There.”

In 2004, while filming “Brokeback Mountain,” the actor met Michelle Williams. A year later, they welcomed their daughter, Matilda Rose. Despite their 2007 breakup, his love for Matilda remained unwavering. Director Terry Gilliam recalled how the actor would carry his daughter in a backpack while discussing movies.
