So many young and talented lives ending; it just saddens me.

I think the writing was on the wall for this a long time ago, he's been looking really, really bad over the past two years. He obviously had a habit, and it finally caught up him. Anyway, my condolences to his closest family and friends.

I remember seeing him in an interview and he was simply beaming about his love for his daughter Mathilda...

Wow - I can't even believe it. Truly Sad.

Can't wait Brokeback Mountain ever the same - it'll be even MORE sad now!

Another interesting thing to note... apparently he was found in the apartment of one of the Olsen twins! Mary Kate, I believe CNN said?!

I was in total shock when I saw his name alongside dead. I was in total denial until I saw this thread, kinda how I was in total denial when I saw dead alongside john ritter, I just couldn't believe it. I know celebrities are just normal people but for some reason I see them as invincible so its hard for me to believe it when they die. I will pray for his family.

I'm stunned. I can't believe this.

If the police aren't sure how/why he died, why do they say he MAY have died from drugs. If you're not sure, why say it in the first place?

OH MY GOSH!

I did NOT expect this. I was really looking forward to him in The Dark Knight, and had heard of his other work, but never expected for him to die!

This is insane. The poor man.

TMZ is live streaming right now from outside the building.

Because they found prescription pills scattered on his bed, according to the always reliable TMZ.

And Kenny...to clarify, I believe Mary-Kate owned the apartment, but it wasn't her personal apartment. I remember reading gossip that they were an item.

Correction: He was not in an apartment owned by her.

That's really crass that they're streaming the moving of his body, IMO.

Looks like the live streaming is now gone just when an ambulance showed up. I had faith that TMZ wouldn't actually show the body being removed - I'm glad I was right.
