The three actors – Jude Law, Colin Farrell and Johnny Depp – who took over the unfinished role of Heath Ledger’s character in The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus have reportedly gifted their paychecks to his little girl. The film’s director Terry Gilliam is quoted as saying, "They didnât take money â it goes to Heathâs daughter [Matilda Rose]."
Thatâs extraordinary! And wonderful … and when youâre part of that, you think, âAh, this is maybe why I went into the movies in the beginning. I thought it would be full of wonderful people.â And weâve got a movie full of wonderful people who did extraordinary things to help.
Matilda, 2 ½, lives with her mother, actress Michelle Williams, in Brooklyn, NY. Heath passed away of an accidental overdose of prescription drugs in January.
