When you're playing a character with a history, fictional or otherwise its your responsibility to have some understanding of that character for yourself. It shouldn't just come from the director or the script you need to know what motives and drives them to be who they are. Taking the time to do that is what makes the differance between being great and just being adequate.
who ever said he research the role was kind of wrong Know he did lock himself in a room for a week but he didn't have Pictures of joker he was keeping a journal but it was him pretending to be his own version of the joker as well ass developing the characters ticks and quirks. and know where does it say the tmnt actors aren't doing this for their roles for this movie. the information that Ledger did any of this was released after the movie released and i think even after he had passed.
