When I first heard the news I was a bit....taken aback. Ledger doesn't strike me as the sort who'll come across with that murderous glee in his eyes. Others I've talk to about the subject have the same feeling, while there are those who comment that both Nolan and Ledger are professionals, and that Nolan wouldn't have cast Heath unless he was certain of the man's ability to portray the character. I can't say I'm happy about the casting decision at this point, but I also won't get upset about it unless Heath finds a way to ruin the Joker.
