My 2 cents (for what dat is sorely worth..lol) ..is with several MCU films, Downey Jr's Tony Stark actingOff-topic but I would put Heath Ledger's portrayal of The Joker (although brief) right there with everything Robert Downey Jr. did as Tony Stark/Iron Man. For me, both actors put 1000% effort into making their characters true, live-action reflections of their paperback counterparts.
Heck. Just thinking back on The Dark Knight still gives me goosebumps. Jack Nicholson was great in a slapstick sort of way. Joaquin Phoenix showed who The Joker was down deep.
Ledger? That man killed it. His death was a true tragedy. His rendition was a supporting role but it was a legendary performance also.
impressions " grew" on us the more expanded screen time his Stark character was dished out and received by the
audiences.
Heath Ledger had advantages in both his very own acting performance as the Joker .. combined with how director Christopher Nolan presented him in Dark Knight. Seriously sinister, cold and dark but extraordinarily clever and not overly corny and cheesy at all. I wondered what other actors were in consideration and auditioned for the role, before it was
decided upon Ledger.
