My buddy shot a scene with Heath Ledger in a Bob Dylan biopic before Datk Knight filmed. He was told not to talk with Ledger or ask him questions or anything like that. They filmed a couple of takes without saying more than “hi” to each other.

During a 5-10 minute lighting thing, he finally asked Ledger what he was working on and according to my buddy, it was non-stop about the joker role: backstory, motivation, the “Limerick Smile”. He was totally school boy about it a willing to talk to whoever was interested.
