The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus - Heath Ledger's last film



Get ready to cheer, Heath Ledger fans -- you're about to get your first real peek at the dearly departed actor's final big-screen performance in the eye-popping fantasy flick 'The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus.'

Though Ledger tragically passed away before completing his part, director Terry Gilliam famously tapped Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell to play different incarnations of Ledger's character so that the show might go on.

Go on it did ... and now, at long last, the 'Parnassus' international trailer has arrived, courtesy of Yahoo UK (the movie has yet to be picked up for U.S. distribution), to offer a glimpse at Ledger's whimsical final turn as "Imaginarium Tony," a charismatic loner who helps Dr. Parnassus (Christopher Plummer) in his quest to win back his daughter's soul from the devil. Watch the trailer below, then let us know what you think.

Looks pretty dope but they could just be blowing it up b/c H. Ledger is in it...wonder how much of the movie he is actually in.

Agreed Nate. The trailer looks like they did a good job filling the void of HL. The three-some they used are A-list actors. I bet the ticket sales will be through the roof just bc people will want to see HL, especially after the Dark Knight.
