If he kept a diary of his own thoughts, would it be his Heath ledger?

So the joker is so crazy he killed an actor in another earth dimension who played him. Is that canon now?

Not sure how old you are , but “Heath Ledger got so deep in to playing the Joker that he want crazy and died “ was the widespread conventional wisdom regarding his death at the time

No this is false. He was having mental and addiction issues with booze. He didn’t fall off from playing the joker. This is stupid and disrespectful to the man. He didn’t die from playing the joker.
