``The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus'' Heath Ledger's final work, completed through the efforts of master Gilliam and his friends.
Baton relay between three popular actors
Everyone thought, "We can do this!" Gilliam and his crew have turned around from a situation where they were forced to cancel production. Three friends, Johnny Depp, Jude Law, and Colin Farrell, have taken a big step towards realizing an unprecedented concept in which Heath Ledger's life will be covered after his death.
In fact, other actors offered to collaborate, but Gilliam politely declined. What's important is that those who know Heath Ledger deeply will dedicate themselves to perfecting this role for him.

But popular actors Depp, Lowe and Farrell didn't have enough time. In particular, Johnny Depp, who will be appearing for the first time, was only able to secure one day and three hours due to his schedule, and decided to jump into the scene without rehearsal. However, he quickly fitted in with admirable flexibility and skillfully carried on the first baton he received from Leisure. The next two actors, each demonstrating their distinct individuality, worked together to create a single role in a relay style.
The result was extremely The Natural, and by having four people play one role, the multifaceted nature of Tony's character was rather highlighted, adding to the novelty and depth of the work. I'm sure Heath Ledger would have admired this quality in heaven and sent a heartfelt compliment.
