Heath Ledger mind-blowing performance with The Dark Knight has landed on Netflix and taken its place already on tops of the streaming service.

Heath Ledger Blows Fans&#8217; Mind Up on Netflix All Over Again

Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight has become one of the most beloved Batman
movies of all time with Heath Ledger‘s appealing turn as the Joker back in 2008.
And recently, the movie has also landed on Netflix and taken its place
immediately as the #7 most-watched film on the streaming service. So, it seems,
not much has been changed despite all those years, after all.

Heath Ledger had wowed audiences and become a character who terrifies comic fans
along with moviegoers. And it seems he still has the same impact with his
big-screen interpretation after decades. So considering all these, the story of
Ledger’s casting in The Dark Knight is really surprising, indeed. Christopher
Nolan‘s brother was the co-writer of the movie and opposed the director’s
decision of casting Ledger back then. But Nolan’s idea didn’t change even so and
moved forward with it as he also promised a mind-blowing performance from
Ledger. And thanks to both of them, we had been given much more than Nolan
promised.

WHY WAS HEATH LEDGER’S JOKER CHARACTER SO GOOD?

In the movie, even if it might have seemed like Batman defeated Joker and left
him to the law, the case with the Clown Prince of Crime has never been come
clear and caused endless discussions as well. Heath Ledger’s Joker had actually
more possibilities as murderous Two-Face was putting Harvey Dent’s into an
incredible molding. He has proved it so. So Joker might have ended behind bars
again but he also reached the top, although Batman had defeated.

On the other side, Heath Ledger died at his age of 28 just a few months before
The Dark Knight hit theaters. So he had never been able to experience the
acclaim he earned with his performance, unfortunately. And we are all still
feeling his loss, especially because of not being able to see his magnificent
and talented performance more. Furthermore, not even Joker‘s recent
interpretations have intrigued fans in a way he did and come any closer to the
weight or brilliance of Heath Ledger’s performance.

So, even if it has been over 13 years since his death, he touched all of the
fans’ lives and became a cult. Heath Ledger has also bequeathed the Batman
franchise such a high bar that they still seem to struggle to catch it again for
decades. It’s really hard to expect such a talent like him, but also exciting to
see them try. Ultimately, we remember with respect one more time, with the
excuse of The Dark Knight landing on Netflix and becoming hit on the platform,
not shockingly at all. So, you may also want to rewatch the movie if you still
haven’t.
