@Mr. Cairo fuck off his performance in dark knight was only okay??.thats why he got an Oscar for his role.Him as Joker was a masterpiece and just okay for dumbass like you but that role took over his mental sanity and his life.Cant blame him he's gone so give respect
Roderick Molasar What about Depp? He played a undercover cop who forgot who he really was.....that's LAYERS away from reality of who he is..... he played a real person famous drug delaer on the OTHER end of the spectrum (it's harder to play people that are alive, you have to nail the accents, mannerisms, & personality....great artists are odd...why he's 1 of the best. He can play ANYTHING....and has. I think Eating Glibert Grape & Crybaby were his most "normal" roles....Crybaby doesn't count b/c it was a spoof on 50's movies. Hilarious!
Terry right man and the better the actors the more they have to actually slipp into that mindset of who they are playing. it can be hard to go back to who your supposed to be
Adrien Brody & Heath Ledger is one of the worlds greatest yet most under appreciated actors. Adrien’s role in The Pianist shows his greatness as well as his performance on Peaky Blinders and Heath’s The Joker leaves me with goosebumps every time I watch the movie. Definitely both in my top five of favourite actors / actresses.
American Psycho, The Machinist, Batman Begins, Rescue Dawn, The Dark Knight, The Fighter, The Dark Knight Rises, Out of the Furnace, American Hustle, Hostiles, Vice.
@@Jared_Wignall everyone forgets Reign of Fire, but I think Matthew McConaughey stole the show in that one. For me, that was the movie when I realized Matthew could act.

You notice about the 6th season his accent became weird. We've been watching the reruns and they're played week nights so there's not a lot of time from the beginning of the series to the end. Watched the Pilot of SOA tonight right after watching the final episode. His accent deteriorated.
As far as Charlie Hunnam's accent goes, people also forget that he moved to the states at 18, so that combined with having roles in which he had to use another accent makes it understandable that his English accent would get lost.
Cant remember her name but what about the woman who co starred the shining with Jack Nicolson from what I heard she almost had a mental breakdown because of it and quit acting for good after that role
@@history_loves_anime8927 she wasn't harassed. Stanley Kubrick was a perfectionist and made her redo several scenes until he liked it. There was one scene where Kubrick made her do over 100 takes of the same scene of her just screaming, and she wasn't the same after that.
If you’ve ever been on a movie set, especially a horror film where so much is fake, you would see how detached it is from real life. There are so many people there, there are also strict rules when working with children.
kimmyleeeeee that’s what they want you to believe, all of these actors channel demons to play these roles so well! What makes you think they care about the children’s well-being, they probably don’t know their in a horror movie, they are more than likely being scared to death in real life to make it more realistic. If you see the methods actors take to get into character to make the film more “authentic” why would the same not go for children.. these directors will do anything for the stake of the film Hence why they starve them to near death to be skinny enough
Most children that are in horror movies arent actually part of the terrible things that happened in the movie they are just told to act scared or act a certain way and they have no idea how bad was happening in the movie really is. Child actors most of the time in horror movies or actually treated very well and never find out until they're older and watch the movie what they were doing
Dalton Butler I believe in some movies that may be the case but in the real Hollywood demonic ones it’s probable something more sinister going on. That’s just my view but who’s to say cos I wasn’t there
While filming Serpico, Pacino was in a cab and saw a crime taking place outside. He jumped out of the cab to intervene before realizing that he was still in character and wasn't actually a cop.
I honestly respect the actor of the kings speech. I actually have a stutter. all my life. it's made communication hard for most of my life. so I respect him for taking that journey.
jakeismyhero EXACTLY. his family and close friends, as well as the crew, said that his role as the joker was one of his most exciting roles and one that he was very proud of. the media just makes this shit up cause they wanna make some tea. so disrespectful
It's so clear in interviews that he loved it, hence why he slept 2 hours a night, he was always thinking, excited...... "it was the by far the funnest i've ever had with a role"
Ledger has this weird affectation of flicking his tongue like a snake in that role. It got on my nerves as I rewatched the film years later. I do agree that the dark world tone of the movie was more compelling than the cartoonish earlier versions.
I first saw Hugh Laurie in the WWI version of "Black Adder Goes Forth" with Rowan Atkinson and he was hilarious. The fact that Laurie can pull off an American accent was a big surprise to me, but at the same time it just proved that he has serious acting chops.
In my opinion The Dark Knight is brutaly overrated. While the Jokers performance is really good, the story is absolute shit. Example wanted: The Harvey Dent plot is ridiculous. He is the best and nicest guy you could ever meet. After that, the explosion happens and he turns into an unpredictable Killer-Maniac in like...one day...It is not even the best film in its own trilogy cause that has to be Batman Begins.
He's known as two-face before the accident because he's got this super nice guy front, but was a ruthless bastard of an investigator (not evil, but a dark and indomitable side that does not match his all-super nice charm). Before the explosion happens Harvey Dent is going around kidnapping and torturing mentally vulnerable people. He had a screw loose from the start. This mentally already deeply volatile guy with a known penchant for a darker side is mutilated while his girlfriend is horribly murdered, so he becomes a killer to take revenge on those he blames.
That Joker was absolutely diabolical. I watched the original Batman series as a kid, but the Ledger Joker was no joke. More psychotic than Hannibal Lecter.
Probably the biggest life changing film for an actor, in this case two actors, was the 1966 film Born Free. Its two main actors, Bill Travers and Virginia McKenna played George and Joy Adamson, a couple that raised a lion cub called Elsa. The tale so affected the stars, that they went on to be instrumental in forming the world wide renown charity, the Born Free Foundation.
Well...this gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “selling their souls”. Actually very sad when you think about how much these people lost their true identities.
Linda Frey I don't agree. I'm sure these people have put achievement above money they were offered. Many actors wish to get remarkable roles. This was the IT moment for them.
According to several people who knew him well, Heath Ledger (1979-2008) became ill (cold or even pneumonia + insomnia) because his role in "The Dark Knight". Shortly prior to his death Ledger told a friend: "Last week I probably slept an average of two hours a night. ... I couldn't stop thinking..." According to Ledger's former fiancé Michelle Williams, Ledger had struggled with insomnia often before. It is hard to know for sure, but if insomnia because of work related stress and insomnia, "pushed" Ledger to take the accidental overdose of medication, Heath Ledger surely deserves to be no. 1 on this list. Rest in peace, Mr.Ledger.
first off bullshit. Ledger suffered from anxiety and insomnia and was medicated YEARS before the dark knight. According to interviews and testimonies from family, friends, and costars he was ecstatic about playing the joker. He claimed it was the most fun hes ever had with a character. Playing the joker didnt kill Heath Ledger, his family actually got royally pissed off and filed a few law suits because people kept making that claim.
I agree. The role of playing the Joker DID NOT "kill" Heath Ledger. Ledger was actually working on two films at the time of his death; "Dark Knight" and "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus". I am sure Ledger enjoyed playing the Joker; his protrayal of Joker is the best. Bui long term insomnia and/or anxiety can be very taxing and painful. It is a bitter irony that Ledger probably just wanted some much needed sleep, when he tragically took so much medication, that he did not wake up again. Ledger's passing was the loss of a truly great actor, and (as far as I know) also the loss of a kind and good man in his prime. Rest in peace, Heath Ledger.
i'm sorry, but i have to laugh at a part of this comment. "...became ill (cold or even pneumonia + insomnia) because his role in "The Dark Knight". So he developed a bacterial infection in his lungs because of his role in the dark knight? Sorry, that made me smile.

robynn I am simply putting these thoughts on the table because of your remarks. I enjoy intense characters myself. *Yes. Then it appears drugs killed this passionate actor, as they continue to kill today. A waste of a human life. Perhaps roles should be considered very seriously and thought through more about potential consequences. Especially if one has to turn to drugs to manage a role. Are the awards and fans asking far too much?
@@miadoe8353 No. He wasn't addicted. He was overworked and not thinking straight and so played doctor taking more pills than he should have. The man killed himself by accident.
AMEN. And the meds that killed him? Him playing doctor and taking more than was prescribed because hey, sleep deprivation causes you to not think clearly.
I am a history buff. I see a lot of WW1 and WW2 documentaries, and they provide a lot of info and are intriguing; but the things I see in them haunt me. Watching a graphic documentary is painful enough, so I can't even imagine how hard it must have been for Adrian Brody to immerse himself so deep in such horrific parts of history. I understand his pain.
Um Jim Caveizel from passion of the Christ should be on here, his life completely changed after that, being hit by lightning, having open heart surgery, etc...he should be number 1
the topic is 'actors who were never the same after a role,' not 'actors who died during filming.' (mind you, they should do a video on that too.) the title implies that said actors went on to do other things after the role. if we're talking about 'the crow,' then it should be mentioned that actor michael massee, who played funboy, took a break from acting for more than a year after filming. not to mention child actor rochelle davis, who played sarah, stopped acting alltogether afterwards (though after looking her up on imdb, it looks like she's done a few things in recent years, but nothing for the 15 years after 'the crow')
Heath ledger died months after he completed filming "dark knight", but many months before it was released. He died while filming "the imaginarium of doctor parnassus."
Brandon Lee's death was an accident caused by someone else's carelessness. Heath Ledger's death was caused by a destructive path he chose to take, be it for the role or otherwise.
There is an occupational hazard in acting, which is becoming so identified with your role that it takes over. These actors have my sympathies and respect.
What about Daniel Day Lewis? Possibly the best actor ever! He IS the personality he portrays in movies. I have never doubted he was a quadriplegic in “My Left Foot,” nor his Native American portrayal in “Last of the Mohicans,” or “There Will Be Blood.” He’s an amazing actor and I understand he never left character no matter what the role
FYI Heath Ledger had the best time of his life during the joker role. In the documentary I am Heath, they state there is no relation for the role leading to / impacting his death.
Just to clarify regarding Janet Leigh; she DID bathe! She just didn't take showers. She took tub baths. When she was in a situation where she had to use a shower, like in some hotels, she would lock the door to the bathroom, stand in the shower with the curtain or shower door open and facing the door during the entire shower.
What about Linda Blair in the Exorcist. That movie almost did that poor girl in. River Phoenix. He never seemed the same after My Own Private Idaho. And Halle Barry For Monsters Ball. Despite the fact that she won the Oscar...she never seemed the same.
YOU FORGOT ABOUT GARY OLDMAN!!!!! He was another British actor that had dine so many American roles that he had to learn how to speak with British accent again
Joaquin was unfortunately always apart of a bizarre and saddening life. His family escaped from a highly sexualised cult when the Phoenix kids were all still children.
DJ SUPERNOVA yes this is what i tell everyone. it's literally in like every documentary about him, his friends and family saying they often got calls from him at 2 AM with new thoughts/ideas that he had. that's actually how his manager knew something was wrong the morning his body was discovered, because heath hadn't called him at some ungodly hour like he did every day. it makes me so sad.
Its kinda funny how they say it was the roles that fucked them up. It seems more like these actors may have already been experiencing many issues and I think that is probably why they always give/gave good performances.
Andy I didn't know you had to personally know a person's life to confirm what his loved ones said about him. Take that edgy shit on somewhere it's lame
You missed one, actor Kirk Douglas noted in his book "Rag Man's Son" that after the role of Vincent van Gogh in the movie "Lust For Life" that he actually felt that he was van Gogh several months after the filming. He needed the help of a therapist to get over it.
This is why actors divorce so often. They meet each other in rehearsal and fall in love with each other's characters and when the film or play is over when they stop being those characters they find that they aren't compatible or in love any longer.
All artists divorce often. Singers, Actors, Directors, models etc...It's because they both want to self realize their dreams and often put themselves over their partner. It's hard to have a time consuming career and be a good husband/father at the same time. Also famous people are often the opposite of easy going. Their ambition and not willing to settle down is what made them famous after all. Ambitious people always want more and get tired of them same partner after a while.
Troy D Oh, That was the worst real evidence of a role destroying an actor. I honestly don't believe he has EVER fully recovered! Great call, to this day I think Matthew's eyes STILL show the evidence of that role draining the very life out of his body.
James Gandalfini after brilliantly portraying Tony Soprano. Look at him before, then after just six seasons. And that was some of the finest acting I've seen on or off the stage/screen. He morphed into Tony, and never played another role (nor did he have to, I guess) before his untimely death at age 51. Terrible loss for the industry; he was unmatched in his last role, absolutely unmatched. I see a lot of Shelly DuVall suggestions here, but I think she was absolutely terrible in The Shining and whatever's wrong with her now was wrong with her then. She just killed any chance of it seeming real (for me.)
Yea I had the same feeling at my job when they asked to leave the grill and wash the dishes. I haven’t been the same since. So I know what these poor people feel like.
It sounds stupid but I never recognize him in a movie until someone points him out. He seems so different to me. But the one I have the most trouble with is Cary Elwes' appearance. Did you see him in Liar, Liar? Hardly the same guy as Men in Tights or Princess Bride.
K. King watch a video of Tom Waits giving an interview, and then compare it to the scene shown in this video. It is uncanny how similar they sound and act.
to me the worst case of "what could have been" was the idea of him making a sequel to the Dark Knight. the third part of the batman trilogy was good but it could have been one of the best movies of the decade with Joker 2.0
The main reasons behind Heath Ledger's mental state before death were more connected to his general loneliness (read: divorce with his wife, lack of contact with his daughter etc.) than to a movie performance itself. But of course the high energy input that was required with the Joker wasn't too helpful as well.
Still don't buy it, lots of people have played the role of a psychopath and it didn't lead them to an accidental overdose. He was making the Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus when he died, how come everybody always points to the Joker as if it was the last thing he did?
Just proof that acting is a much more than “pretending” to be someone. It can take a huge toll on someone who decides to become the character and push themselves to “live” the character.
I met McDonald in Arizona 4 years ago. We we're on a touring train ride and I recognized him. He was a very gracious man. He kindly gave me an autograph and let me take a selfie with him.
jhonathandio Pretending for a living is a joke. Most do it, have done it, live it or have lived it for real. Actors only pretend to be real people who have.
I had a job for about 3 months in the summer cleaning up home invasion crime scenes.....about three really bad ones, nothing can compare to the real thing, the smell is the worst part. Here's a little slice of wisdom from me; it's not a good cop movie if they don't wrinkle there noses at the smell of 24 hour blood👌
Charlize Theron after the movie Monster, I mean.....I'd be F'd up for a long time playing that role!! Just saying......Charlize played that role impeccably!!
Milia Mithrian I totally agree. She was unbelievable in that movie. Someone with her beauty, totally transformed into someone so disturbed, it was an incredible performance.
I use a clear shower curtain. Some have patterns for privacy but you can still see through them. Wash in washing machine with baking soda when they get too hazy.
Daniel Day Lewis should be on the list. He caught pneumonia walking around New York in 18th century clothing for Gangs of New York, and was injured due to playing a paralyzed man in My Left Foot.
He was interviewed while promoting There Will Be Blood and when asked how difficult it would be to "come down" from playing that violent character each day he basically said he didn't always and added it was like painting your house, it really doesn't pay to get completely cleaned up each night.
The possession actress and the Babe actor both were pretty minor issues that they had to deal with, especially compared to people like Bale who had to become terribly underweight and he was only able to eat what amounted to a single handful (like 4oz) of food a day for weeks. I had a similar weightloss when i was younger and it makes you feel like your dead and it's hell to get the weight back on.
That's why Daniel Day Lewis (the most extreme method actor (who s still normal according to my knowledge))takes a break of at least 2 years after playing in a movie.
I think one of the worst case would be Victor marrow. He was killed on set while filming the movie The Twilight Zone. He was decapitated by the blades of a helicopter. If you Google it you can see the actual footage from the accident and about the trial . It is a interesting story and I think that people don't remember it because it happened in 1982.
James Farrell Victor Morrow (February 14, 1929 - July 23, 1982) was an American actor and director whose credits include a starring role in the 1960s ABC television series Combat! Morrow and two child actors were killed in 1982 by a stunt helicopter crash during the filming of Twilight Zone: The Movie.
BD was SCARY 'way before he portrayed JWG! Something creepy in those eyes, even 'way back in Cocoon. I believe that NYC should sponsor a *Brian Dennehy Blimp* for the Macy's Parade...lol
Tom Hanks should be on the List. After doing 'Philadelphia', he has not done a Comedy Role since. He has done nothing but Serious Dramatic Roles since then.
They thought Hugh Laurie was American? I've got two words for you... "Black Adder." Popular comedy TV series in the UK with a very powerful series finale worth watching. Apparently you don't need to be a fan of good TV series, to make one yourself. I still recall during one awards show how a certain really ignorant person commented that Laurie is surprisingly good at comedy, after he did a funny skit on stage. Surprisingly good?! No, just really good. And there's a really good f**king reason for that!
I'm sorry, I LOVE Charlie Hunnam so so much and I think he's a fantastic actor, but he is definitely NOT known for his "extraordinarily convincing American accent."
Yeah, I’m a language/grammar accent nerd and a former language teacher. It’s very hard for actors to trick me into believing they are American if they're British or Australian. Hugh Laurie was quite convincing, but every once in a while, he’d pronounce a word with a bit of British twist. Two actors have fooled me into believing they were American, however. The first one is Alfred Enoch, to whom I was first exposed in “How To Get Away With Murder”. No, I’ve never seen any of the Happy Potter movies, and I had never even seen or heard of Alfred before “HTGAWM”. The actor really did his homework before appearing on “HTGAWM”, learning and studying the regional American accent needed for the role of Wes. He pulled off a northern Ohio accent extremely well. The other actor who had me fooled was Ben Mendelsohn, who played Danny in the Netflix original series “Bloodline”. He’s an Australian actor who was relatively unknown in the U.S. at the time. While watching the show, I never had a dialectical clue that Ben was Australian. He is, in my opinion, the non-American actor who has BEST pulled off an American accent. Interestingly, the same show cast Australian actress Jacinda Barrett as a supporting character. However, Jacinda’s portrayal of Diana as an American woman was not very convincing. On a regular basis, Jacinda would lapse into the Australian pronunciation of multiple words, including when her character would say the name of Mendelsohn’s character, “Danny”.
A nice chunk of actors in The Walking Dead are Brits and Aussies, if I recall correctly. I thought that Morissey did an amazing job as The Governor/Phillip.
reivenesque LOL!!! Yeah! I know what you mean! I’d say that in SOA he was known to the female viewers (and, most likely a few of the male viewers, as well) as a very sexy guy with a really tight...uhhhhh, ummm...a very tight...grasp of the American accent!!! 😉😁👍🏼👍🏼
Janet Leigh was not on set the day the infamous shower scene was was filmed. They used a body double, but I have seen so many interviews with her about it, I think she has convinced herself it was truly her
When I first watched "Babe", I was alone in a small Theater. I was crying, and also- did not want to eat animals. (I do though!) I really do appreciate, those who are Vegetarians. That's Awesome!
Deniro - Raging Bull / Kurt Russel - Soldier - Huge Jackman - Wolverine / Stallone / Cop Town -Body transformations due to weight or muscle have physical effects due to excessive training, eating, dieting, steroids. The body doesn’t have a “make-believe-it’s-just-acting” gear - it is starving, obsessively eating, or over-training FOR REAL. Deniro trained like a boxer and over-ate as the ex-boxer.
Schwarzenegger is in BAD SHAPE, too! He's in his 70's now, and does good to cross the street w/out assistance. After all of that bodybuilding, the steroids told out. He had open-heart surgery recently, with bad complications. Jeez-Louise...
What other actors should've made this list?
Al Pacino - Scent of a Woman
Looper Wasn't Bob Hokins placed in a mental hospital? I believe it was around the time of making that film.
Vivien Leigh - Streetcar Named Desire
Looper Janet Leigh never won an academy award
Looper Shelly Duvall - The Shining
I miss Heath Ledger. His portrayal of the Joker was phenomenal, but he had the potential to do so much more.
Not just the joker, he had a lot of amazing performances before that
@Mr. Cairo Ok, first of all he fucking adored his daughter and second of all his performance of the Joker was a fucking masterpiece.
He kept licking his lips or whatever he was doing with his tongue as the joker, that shit was annoying
@Mr. Cairo fuck off his performance in dark knight was only okay??.thats why he got an Oscar for his role.Him as Joker was a masterpiece and just okay for dumbass like you but that role took over his mental sanity and his life.Cant blame him he's gone so give respect
@@deathrow8809 he got an Oscar because he died.
Imagine going crazy because you were paid to pretend you were crazy
That's a fucked up way to go. Cause you have to believe it, there is no fake it to make it then.
You'd have to be pretty gay for that to happen.
“Act and you shall become” the mind is an enigma, incredible what you can convince yourself of.
It's more likely that she was cast because they saw "something" in her that told them she would play the role convincingly.
I wish I could get paid to do that.
Rest In Peace Heath Ledger. You will always be The best Joker
JD 1 Jack Nickleson was better.
No, Mark Hamill is.
Throw in another vote for Jack here. Jack Nicholson is by far the best Joker.
*Jared Leto
JD 1 no Zack ghalifinakis(?) was the best. noone can beat him ever
Christian Bale is never the same after each and every role
ahh yes. mr. BAAL.
I liked christian's potrayal of the batman.
Especially the mechanic.
He was 120 pounds in the machinist and smoked cigarettes on set to keep that weight
Sure he is - before and after every role, he's an asshole
I have wondered how actors ever remember who they really are...always pretending to be someone else.
Terry Bruce Like deep undercover agents or cops.
THEY DON'T.
Roderick Molasar What about Depp? He played a undercover cop who forgot who he really was.....that's LAYERS away from reality of who he is..... he played a real person famous drug delaer on the OTHER end of the spectrum (it's harder to play people that are alive, you have to nail the accents, mannerisms, & personality....great artists are odd...why he's 1 of the best. He can play ANYTHING....and has.
I think Eating Glibert Grape & Crybaby were his most "normal" roles....Crybaby doesn't count b/c it was a spoof on 50's movies. Hilarious!
Terry right man and the better the actors the more they have to actually slipp into that mindset of who they are playing. it can be hard to go back to who your supposed to be

And he did another great performance in monster's ball
almost any role of Christian Bale would not be out of place in this list

American Psycho, The Machinist, Batman Begins, Rescue Dawn, The Dark Knight, The Fighter, The Dark Knight Rises, Out of the Furnace, American Hustle, Hostiles, Vice.
@@Jared_Wignall everyone forgets Reign of Fire, but I think Matthew McConaughey stole the show in that one. For me, that was the movie when I realized Matthew could act.

Wasn't she essentially harassed by the crew to get those extreme reactions out of her?
@@history_loves_anime8927 she wasn't harassed. Stanley Kubrick was a perfectionist and made her redo several scenes until he liked it. There was one scene where Kubrick made her do over 100 takes of the same scene of her just screaming, and she wasn't the same after that.
Omg that is sooooo cool!!!

One of my main concerns is children being placed in horror movies. They shouldn’t subjected to that for any reason.
The kid in the shining had no idea he was in a horror movie, and I think that's how it should be. 😊
If you’ve ever been on a movie set, especially a horror film where so much is fake, you would see how detached it is from real life. There are so many people there, there are also strict rules when working with children.

Scent of a woman is brilliant.
I honestly respect the actor of the kings speech. I actually have a stutter. all my life. it's made communication hard for most of my life. so I respect him for taking that journey.
His name is Colin Firth, and he is indeed a stunning performer.
same and it's especially hard when you comet o high school and it's harder to make friends cuz of it because you can barely talk (well my experiences)

Same here. I stammer too.
I worked for nearly two decades with a newspaper photo editor who struggled with a stutter. It's no picnic.
Uhhhh, where's Jim Carrey in Man On the Moon? He literally never went back to his old self, realizing that "Jim Carrey" is just a character.

Heath Ledger wasn't disturbed by his role as the Joker. His sister and family get really irritated by that rumour.
jakeismyhero EXACTLY. his family and close friends, as well as the crew, said that his role as the joker was one of his most exciting roles and one that he was very proud of. the media just makes this shit up cause they wanna make some tea. so disrespectful
It's so clear in interviews that he loved it, hence why he slept 2 hours a night, he was always thinking, excited...... "it was the by far the funnest i've ever had with a role"
Did know that. But I have to say that's one brilliant performance.
Except for the fact that its true and has been proven lmao.
Ledger has this weird affectation of flicking his tongue like a snake in that role. It got on my nerves as I rewatched the film years later. I do agree that the dark world tone of the movie was more compelling than the cartoonish earlier versions.
I first saw Hugh Laurie in the WWI version of "Black Adder Goes Forth" with Rowan Atkinson and he was hilarious. The fact that Laurie can pull off an American accent was a big surprise to me, but at the same time it just proved that he has serious acting chops.
Rip heath ledger! Best Joker I ever seen.. he alone made The Dark Knight my favorite movie..
In my opinion The Dark Knight is brutaly overrated. While the Jokers performance is really good, the story is absolute shit. Example wanted: The Harvey Dent plot is ridiculous. He is the best and nicest guy you could ever meet. After that, the explosion happens and he turns into an unpredictable Killer-Maniac in like...one day...It is not even the best film in its own trilogy cause that has to be Batman Begins.
He's known as two-face before the accident because he's got this super nice guy front, but was a ruthless bastard of an investigator (not evil, but a dark and indomitable side that does not match his all-super nice charm). Before the explosion happens Harvey Dent is going around kidnapping and torturing mentally vulnerable people. He had a screw loose from the start. This mentally already deeply volatile guy with a known penchant for a darker side is mutilated while his girlfriend is horribly murdered, so he becomes a killer to take revenge on those he blames.
That Joker was absolutely diabolical.
I watched the original Batman series as a kid, but the Ledger Joker was no joke.
More psychotic than Hannibal Lecter.

Probably the biggest life changing film for an actor, in this case two actors, was the 1966 film Born Free.
Its two main actors, Bill Travers and Virginia McKenna played George and Joy Adamson, a couple that raised a lion cub called Elsa.
The tale so affected the stars, that they went on to be instrumental in forming the world wide renown charity, the Born Free Foundation.
Well...this gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “selling their souls”. Actually very sad when you think about how much these people lost their true identities.
Linda Frey I don't agree. I'm sure these people have put achievement above money they were offered.
Many actors wish to get remarkable roles. This was the IT moment for them.
Yeah, boo fucking hoo.

According to several people who knew him well, Heath Ledger (1979-2008) became ill (cold or even pneumonia + insomnia) because his role in "The Dark Knight". Shortly prior to his death Ledger told a friend: "Last week I probably slept an average of two hours a night. ... I couldn't stop thinking..." According to Ledger's former fiancé Michelle Williams, Ledger had struggled with insomnia often before. It is hard to know for sure, but if insomnia because of work related stress and insomnia, "pushed" Ledger to take the accidental overdose of medication, Heath Ledger surely deserves to be no. 1 on this list. Rest in peace, Mr.Ledger.
ya just don't mix cough syrup with anything! he's not the first.
first off bullshit. Ledger suffered from anxiety and insomnia and was medicated YEARS before the dark knight. According to interviews and testimonies from family, friends, and costars he was ecstatic about playing the joker. He claimed it was the most fun hes ever had with a character. Playing the joker didnt kill Heath Ledger, his family actually got royally pissed off and filed a few law suits because people kept making that claim.
I agree. The role of playing the Joker DID NOT "kill" Heath Ledger. Ledger was actually working on two films at the time of his death; "Dark Knight" and "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus". I am sure Ledger enjoyed playing the Joker; his protrayal of Joker is the best. Bui long term insomnia and/or anxiety can be very taxing and painful. It is a bitter irony that Ledger probably just wanted some much needed sleep, when he tragically took so much medication, that he did not wake up again. Ledger's passing was the loss of a truly great actor, and (as far as I know) also the loss of a kind and good man in his prime. Rest in peace, Heath Ledger.
i'm sorry, but i have to laugh at a part of this comment. "...became ill (cold or even pneumonia + insomnia) because his role in "The Dark Knight". So he developed a bacterial infection in his lungs because of his role in the dark knight? Sorry, that made me smile.
James None of your business No it’s true, I played and extra in Friends and got a hernia right after.

robynn I am simply putting these thoughts on the table because of your remarks. I enjoy intense characters myself.
*Yes. Then it appears drugs killed this passionate actor, as they continue to kill today. A waste of a human life. Perhaps roles should be considered very seriously and thought through more about potential consequences. Especially if one has to turn to drugs to manage a role. Are the awards and fans asking far too much?
@@miadoe8353 No. He wasn't addicted. He was overworked and not thinking straight and so played doctor taking more pills than he should have. The man killed himself by accident.
AMEN. And the meds that killed him? Him playing doctor and taking more than was prescribed because hey, sleep deprivation causes you to not think clearly.
I am a history buff. I see a lot of WW1 and WW2 documentaries, and they provide a lot of info and are intriguing; but the things I see in them haunt me. Watching a graphic documentary is painful enough, so I can't even imagine how hard it must have been for Adrian Brody to immerse himself so deep in such horrific parts of history. I understand his pain.
R. I. P Heath Ledger 💔 No one could ever play the same amazing role you did! 💔😖
Um Jim Caveizel from passion of the Christ should be on here, his life completely changed after that, being hit by lightning, having open heart surgery, etc...he should be number 1
Battlea agreed
Thats because the devil attacked him for participating in such a beautiful movie of the truth Jesus Christ is the the truth !!
Amen!! that's the first thing I thought when I watched this. He should most definitely be number one!
Amen! Absolutely!! I too am a believer & follower of Jesus Christ. May God bless us all 🙏🏼
Mia Sanchez lmaoooo what
Heath always breaks my heart, and it really hurts because he never got to see his work and how good it was as the joker.
Heath Ledger: we miss you!
As do I Doctor, as do I.
I didn't know Heath Ledger was gay until I saw Brokeback Mountain.
He wasn't gay. He was married (to a woman) with kids
+Ace1King1 He wasn't lol
Well you never added Brandon Lee, his role killed him.
the topic is 'actors who were never the same after a role,' not 'actors who died during filming.' (mind you, they should do a video on that too.) the title implies that said actors went on to do other things after the role.
if we're talking about 'the crow,' then it should be mentioned that actor michael massee, who played funboy, took a break from acting for more than a year after filming. not to mention child actor rochelle davis, who played sarah, stopped acting alltogether afterwards (though after looking her up on imdb, it looks like she's done a few things in recent years, but nothing for the 15 years after 'the crow')
Heath Ledger is in this video. He died before the movie was completed.
Heath ledger died months after he completed filming "dark knight", but many months before it was released. He died while filming "the imaginarium of doctor parnassus."
Ah ok. Thank you!
Brandon Lee's death was an accident caused by someone else's carelessness. Heath Ledger's death was caused by a destructive path he chose to take, be it for the role or otherwise.
There is an occupational hazard in acting, which is becoming so identified with your role that it takes over. These actors have my sympathies and respect.
Didn't even mention Charlie Hunnam's role in Sons of Anarchy. Which was my favorite btw
Wasnt that the most famous thing he did
I think it was because it goes without saying (?)

FYI Heath Ledger had the best time of his life during the joker role. In the documentary I am Heath, they state there is no relation for the role leading to / impacting his death.
Naeem Moosajee ikr that's exactly what I've been trying to explain to people but they just don't listen
Just to clarify regarding Janet Leigh; she DID bathe! She just didn't take showers. She took tub baths. When she was in a situation where she had to use a shower, like in some hotels, she would lock the door to the bathroom, stand in the shower with the curtain or shower door open and facing the door during the entire shower.
Christian Bale in The Machinist? Come on guys, that one's a given!
Val Kilmer, The Doors, that role messed him up for years after.
should have won the oscar for that role. Mesmerizing.
I think cake, donuts and pints of Ben and Jerry's messed him up more 😂😂
What about Linda Blair in the Exorcist. That movie almost did that poor girl in. River Phoenix. He never seemed the same after My Own Private Idaho. And Halle Barry

heath ledger just slept for 2 hours a night because he suffered from insomnia all his life
DJ SUPERNOVA yes this is what i tell everyone. it's literally in like every documentary about him, his friends and family saying they often got calls from him at 2 AM with new thoughts/ideas that he had. that's actually how his manager knew something was wrong the morning his body was discovered, because heath hadn't called him at some ungodly hour like he did every day. it makes me so sad.
Its kinda funny how they say it was the roles that fucked them up. It seems more like these actors may have already been experiencing many issues and I think that is probably why they always give/gave good performances.
And you'red who? His GP or what?
Andy I didn't know you had to personally know a person's life to confirm what his loved ones said about him. Take that edgy shit on somewhere it's lame
Insomnia is a bitch, I suffer from this shit since early teens. Luckily i smoke herb instead of using pharmaceuticals.

You missed one, actor Kirk Douglas noted in his book "Rag Man's Son" that after the role of Vincent van Gogh in the movie "Lust For Life" that he actually felt that he was van Gogh several months after the filming. He needed the help of a therapist to get over it.
This is why actors divorce so often. They meet each other in rehearsal and fall in love with each other's characters and when the film or play is over when they stop being those characters they find that they aren't compatible or in love any longer.
Bruce Solomon Good Point?
This is good I️ never thought about this like that
Bruce Solomon Good point!
All artists divorce often. Singers, Actors, Directors, models etc...It's because they both want to self realize their dreams and often put themselves over their partner. It's hard to have a time consuming career and be a good husband/father at the same time.
Also famous people are often the opposite of easy going. Their ambition and not willing to settle down is what made them famous after all. Ambitious people always want more and get tired of them same partner after a while.
Divorce rates are high no matter if it's artists or not. So I don't think you can conclude that it's the reason for why some actors divorce.
Matthew McConaughey after Dallas buyers club? His body was so screwed up after that movie
Troy D Oh, That was the worst real evidence of a role destroying an actor. I honestly don't believe he has EVER fully recovered! Great call, to this day I think Matthew's eyes STILL show the evidence of that role draining the very life out of his body.

Chris Hemsworth would make an amazing Edward

I'm also cool with Jude Law gaining some weight and being Jacob fry
James Gandalfini after brilliantly portraying Tony Soprano. Look at him before, then after just six seasons. And that was some of the finest acting I've seen on or off the stage/screen. He morphed into Tony, and never played another role (nor did he have to, I guess) before his untimely death at age 51. Terrible loss for the industry; he was unmatched in his last role, absolutely unmatched.
I see a lot of Shelly DuVall suggestions here, but I think she was absolutely terrible in The Shining and whatever's wrong with her now was wrong with her then. She just killed any chance of it seeming real (for me.)
Yea I had the same feeling at my job when they asked to leave the grill and wash the dishes. I haven’t been the same since. So I know what these poor people feel like.

WHAT ABOUT GARY OLDMAN?!?!?!?! THAT MAN DISAPPEARS INTO HIS ROLES!!!
It sounds stupid but I never recognize him in a movie until someone points him out. He seems so different to me. But the one I have the most trouble with is Cary Elwes' appearance. Did you see him in Liar, Liar? Hardly the same guy as Men in Tights or Princess Bride.
Colin Firth is one of my top 10 actors. He deserved an Oscar for his performance in The King's Speech.
That's sweet about James. Christopher is such an underrated actor. I'm glad you mentioned.
man heath was my favorite joker ..I was looking forward for him to play again
K. King watch a video of Tom Waits giving an interview, and then compare it to the scene shown in this video. It is uncanny how similar they sound and act.
to me the worst case of "what could have been" was the idea of him making a sequel to the Dark Knight. the third part of the batman trilogy was good but it could have been one of the best movies of the decade with Joker 2.0
The main reasons behind Heath Ledger's mental state before death were more connected to his general loneliness (read: divorce with his wife, lack of contact with his daughter etc.) than to a movie performance itself. But of course the high energy input that was required with the Joker wasn't too helpful as well.
I wish he took a break after The Dark Knight instead of doing that rubbish last film of his.
Pretty sure that playing the role of a psychopath didn't help tho
Still don't buy it, lots of people have played the role of a psychopath and it didn't lead them to an accidental overdose. He was making the Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus when he died, how come everybody always points to the Joker as if it was the last thing he did?
Just proof that acting is a much more than “pretending” to be someone. It can take a huge toll on someone who decides to become the character and push themselves to “live” the character.
I met McDonald in Arizona 4 years ago. We we're on a touring train ride and I recognized him. He was a very gracious man. He kindly gave me an autograph and let me take a selfie with him.
Charlie Hunnam wasn't the only British actor to have lost their accent, as Gary Oldman had the exact same problem.
Steve Hickman as did Hugh Laurie
Good, the British accent is ugly anyways good riddance.
wwwwwwhat?^ that's a very unpopular opinion.
"The british accent" What british accent? The accent in england basically changes every 5 miles you travel so what are you even talking about?
how is Christopher Walken not on this list. He still talks like his character from the deerhunter.

Pretending for a living is a joke. Most do it, have done it, live it or have lived it for real. Actors only pretend to be real people who have.
I had a job for about 3 months in the summer cleaning up home invasion crime scenes.....about three really bad ones, nothing can compare to the real thing, the smell is the worst part. Here's a little slice of wisdom from me; it's not a good cop movie if they don't wrinkle there noses at the smell of 24 hour blood👌
Charlize Theron after the movie Monster, I mean.....I'd be F'd up for a long time playing that role!! Just saying......Charlize played that role impeccably!!

Daniel Day Lewis should be on the list. He caught pneumonia walking around New York in 18th century clothing for Gangs of New York, and was injured due to playing a paralyzed man in My Left Foot.
He was interviewed while promoting There Will Be Blood and when asked how difficult it would be to "come down" from playing that violent character each day he basically said he didn't always and added it was like painting your house, it really doesn't pay to get completely cleaned up each night.
The machinist Christian bale
..what a classic
The possession actress and the Babe actor both were pretty minor issues that they had to deal with, especially compared to people like Bale who had to become terribly underweight and he was only able to eat what amounted to a single handful (like 4oz) of food a day for weeks. I had a similar weightloss when i was younger and it makes you feel like your dead and it's hell to get the weight back on.
Don't think it applies as Christian Bale bounced back for Batman Begins. This video is talking about roles that affect actors/actresses for life.

They thought Hugh Laurie was American? I've got two words for you... "Black Adder." Popular comedy TV series in the UK with a very powerful series finale worth watching.
Apparently you don't need to be a fan of good TV series, to make one yourself. I still recall during one awards show how a certain really ignorant person commented that Laurie is surprisingly good at comedy, after he did a funny skit on stage. Surprisingly good?! No, just really good. And there's a really good f**king reason for that!
"A Bit of Fry & Laurie" is also great.
It's just one word: "Blackadder"
I'm sorry, I LOVE Charlie Hunnam so so much and I think he's a fantastic actor, but he is definitely NOT known for his "extraordinarily convincing American accent."
I hated his damn white shoes! 😂😂😂
Yeah, I’m a language/grammar accent nerd and a former language teacher. It’s very hard for actors to trick me into believing they are American if they're British or Australian. Hugh Laurie was quite convincing, but every once in a while, he’d pronounce a word with a bit of British twist.
Two actors have fooled me into believing they were American, however. The first one is Alfred Enoch, to whom I was first exposed in “How To Get Away With Murder”. No, I’ve never seen any of the Happy Potter movies, and I had never even seen or heard of Alfred before “HTGAWM”. The actor really did his homework before appearing on “HTGAWM”, learning and studying the regional American accent needed for the role of Wes. He pulled off a northern Ohio accent extremely well.
The other actor who had me fooled was Ben Mendelsohn, who played Danny in the Netflix original series “Bloodline”. He’s an Australian actor who was relatively unknown in the U.S. at the time. While watching the show, I never had a dialectical clue that Ben was Australian. He is, in my opinion, the non-American actor who has BEST pulled off an American accent. Interestingly, the same show cast Australian actress Jacinda Barrett as a supporting character. However, Jacinda’s portrayal of Diana as an American woman was not very convincing. On a regular basis, Jacinda would lapse into the Australian pronunciation of multiple words, including when her character would say the name of Mendelsohn’s character, “Danny”.
A nice chunk of actors in The Walking Dead are Brits and Aussies, if I recall correctly. I thought that Morissey did an amazing job as The Governor/Phillip.
reivenesque LOL!!! Yeah! I know what you mean! I’d say that in SOA he was known to the female viewers (and, most likely a few of the male viewers, as well) as a very sexy guy with a really tight...uhhhhh, ummm...a very tight...grasp of the American accent!!! 😉😁👍🏼👍🏼
Hes not american?!?!
Janet Leigh was not on set the day the infamous shower scene was was filmed. They used a body double, but I have seen so many interviews with her about it, I think she has convinced herself it was truly her
