Heath Ledger’s final film, ‘Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus’, has been trailered and it has already started ruling the box office. Speculations are growing on whether it would be the late actor’s best film beating the box office records of “Dark Knight”, for which the actor won a posthumous Oscar.
After receiving huge applauds for playing the role of Joker in Dark Knight, it is expected that the final film of Ledger will do well in box office and will be loved by all his fans. Ledger fans have liked the trailer of his last film and have considered it to be amazing. The trailer of “The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus” puts light on the past life of Dr. Parnassus. Ledger plays the role of a mysterious man whose job is to save the doc from a deal with the devil. The film also stars Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell as alternate versions of Ledger within the doctor’s Imaginarium.
Directed by Terry Gilliam, the audience can expect to catch a lot of Heath Ledger in the film. Before the filming of Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus was over Ledger had an unexpected death. This uncanny incident brought in four other Hollywood stars to fill in his place. Gilliam promises to take his audience through various emotional spectrum like he did earlier through his films like Year and Loathing in Las Vegas and 12 Monkeys. It would be a journey from gloom to glee and darkness to light.
The Oscar winning actor had an accidental death due to overdose of prescribed drugs in 2008.
