Law + Depp + Farrell = Ledger

Poor Terry Gilliam is a little cursed when it comes to making films — Brazil (1985), The Man Who Killed Don Quixote (unfinished), The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (2009).

Heath Ledger filmed a bunch of scenes as the character of Tony in Gilliam’s upcoming film, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (2009). Filming ground to a halt last month when Ledger died of an “accidental drug overdose” Ledger was one of the principal stars and had many scenes to shoot in Vancouver.

The BBC News is reporting that Jude Law, Johnny Depp and Colin Farrell will now play different incarnations of Ledger’s character in the upcoming film. All of a sudden The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus became a lot more interesting.
