Batman co-stars honour Heath Ledger

Michael Caine, Christian Bale and Maggie Gyllenhaal have paid tribute to their fellow Dark Knight star Heath Ledger at the film's New York world premiere. "Working with Heath was fantastic," Christian Bale told press. "He steals the movie and I'm quite happy to say that. He's a hell of a talent and created a joker that's very iconic and one that will become a classic portrayal of the ages." Film legend Michael Caine was equally full of praise, "When we were sitting down between takes, he was completely ordinary. He wasn't preparing himself or saying, 'Please leave me alone, I've gotta do this. Instead he was talking to me. We would sit and chat and have a cup of coffee, then suddenly they'd say, 'We're ready, Heath,' and he'd go straight into The Joker. His energy was astonishing, especially when it came from this kind of calm. He's certainly the best villain I've ever seen."
