Many of you might know that The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is Heath Ledger's last movie, but he died before the filming of his scenes was complete.

Anyway, rather than call of the movie or recast, the directors chose to four actors for the role- Heath, Colin, Farrel, Jude Law, and Johnny Depp. I think this was a really good choice, personally.

I was watching E News last night and heard the sweetest thing. Colin, Jude, and Johnny are donating 100% of their salaries from the movie to Heath's daughter Matilda!!! How awesome is that? I know they can afford to lose one paycheck (even though it would be a LARGE one to lose), but a lot of actors probably would not be so generous. The director of the movie said he was so touched and has never seen anything ike this before.

Just thought I'd share. You can read about the movie here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1054606/

That is too sweet! There are few celebs out there who would be that generous. I know for a fact that Johnny does similar things once in a while, but I certainly wouldn't have expected it from Colin Farrell. Way to go!!

^ ITA. I expected nothing less of my Johnny.

It is so refreshing to hear nice stories like this after always hearing all of the stories of affairs, greed, drugs, and whatever else!

Looks like I scooped Perez Hilton!

Touching Tribute

This brought a tear to our eye and softened our callous heart!
According to the UK's The Sun, the three Hollywood stars who completed Heath Ledger's final film role have donated their pay to his two-year-old daughter, Matilda.
Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell were worried for Matilda’s future as Heath left an old will which did not include the little one.
Heath's dad, Kim Ledger, is in control of Heath's estate. Family members have said they're concerned that daddy will mismanage the actor's money.
The three played versions of Heath's character, Tim, in fantasy epic The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus.
Film director Terry Gilliam said, “They didn’t take money — it goes to Heath’s daughter. That’s extraordinary! And wonderful . . . and when you’re part of that, you think, ‘Ah, this is maybe why I went into the movies in the beginning. I thought it would be full of wonderful people. And we’ve got a movie full of wonderful people who did extraordinary things to help.”
Johnny Depp is a father of two, Jude Law has four and Colin Farrel has a son.
We love it. Dads looking out for one another!
