Will Depp, Farrell and Law Fill in for Ledger?

A few weeks ago, we said there was a chance Heath Ledger’s last project might still go forward. Director Terry Gilliam - who also worked with Ledger on 2005’s The Brothers Grimm - was doing his best to rework the uncompleted film.
Now a new report claims that Heath (and Terry) may be getting a little help from a group of friends. According to Ain’t It Cool News, Jude Law, Colin Farrell and Johnny Depp will all be helping to fill the gaps in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.
Parnassus revolves around a theater troupe and their magical mirror. Audiences members are magically taken through the mirror to have their imaginations explored.

Last month, co-star Christopher Plummer said “because the film deals with magic, there is a way, perhaps, of turning Heath into other people and then, using stills and I think they call it CGI…” Well, it appears the trio of substitutes may be coming in to accomplish this feat; they’ll be representing the ‘other people’ Ledger turns into.
Production on Parnassus has been on indefinite hold since Heath’s passing on Jan. 22nd.
