An Australian TV and film actor throughout the 90s, Ledger became known to American audiences with the release of 10 Things I Hate About You in 1999 and cemented his Hollywood cred while starring alongside Mel Gibson in The Patriot. A critically acclaimed rising star, particularly for his role as the Joker in The Dark Knight, Ledger died in early 2008 of an apparent prescription drug overdose.
