During his 28-year life, Heath Ledger had such an impact on those around him.
The first trailer for Spike TV's upcoming documentary, I Am Heath Ledger, features throwback footage of the Dark Knight star -- who died in 2008 due to accidental intoxication from prescription drugs -- paired with tear-jerking testimony from friends, family and filmmakers alike.
"Before Brokeback Mountain came out, it would have been unthinkable to have a romantic tragedy involving two gay cowboys," Rogue One: A Star Wars Story star Ben Mendelsohn says. "This is one of the biggest heartthrobs on Earth, that's an artist."
"Even as a supporting actor, he will steal the whole show," Brokeback Mountain director Ang Lee recalls.
