London
(ANI):
The
helmer
of
one
of
Heath
Ledger"s
last
performances
has
paid
homage
to
the
dead
actor,
saying
he
was
"bursting
with
creativity".
Christopher
Nolan,
director
of
Batman
sequel
The
Dark
Knight,
in
which
Ledger
plays
The
Joker,
told
how
the
Australian
actor
would
turn
up
on
set
on
his
nights
off.
He
said
that
Ledger,
whose
Joker
is
a
skateboarding
psychopath,
sparked
a
craze
among
younger
crew
members.
"I'd
fretted
about
the
reaction
of
Batman
fans
to
a
skateboarding
Joker,
but
the
actual
result
was
a
proliferation
of
skateboards
among
the
younger
crew
members," the
Telegraph
quoted
Nolan,
as
stating
in
an
article
for
Newsweek.
"If
you'd
asked
those
kids
why
they
had
chosen
to
bring
their
boards
to
work,
they
would
have
answered
honestly
that
they
didn't
know.
"That's
real
charisma
as
invisible
and
natural
as
gravity.
That's
what
Heath
had.
Heath
was
bursting
with
creativity.
It
was
in
his
every
gesture,"
he
added.
