Check out the movie trailer video for The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, which looks to be a trippy little film, starring the late Heath Ledger, Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell. The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus opens in theaters October 16.

Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell, who took on various versions of Heath Ledger in “The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus” after the actor’s death – are donating their paychecks to Heath Ledger’s daughter, Matilda.

Accordingt to “The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus” director Terry Gilliam, “They didn’t take money — it goes to Heath’s daughter. That’s extraordinary!

I thought it would be full of wonderful people.’ ” Read the rest of this entry »

If Johnny Depp does fill in for Heath Ledger in his last film, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, there’s apparently a way to make it work. The story has a magic mirror through which ledger’s character falls, and he could change into another character, portrayed by Johnny Depp. It’s being directed by Monty Python alumni Terry Gilliam, and his brand of moviemaking suggests that such a plot device could work.

Ledger had already finished work as The Joker for Batman: The Dark Knight. However, Warner Bros. is unsure of the marketing campaign at this point. This movie is currently scheduled for release on July 18.
