feb 18, 2008 - Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell to complete Heath Ledger's final film,

Description:

A power trio of male movie talent will fill in the gaps for Heath Ledger in his final film role.

Bankable stars Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell have signed on to step in where the recently deceased actor left off in the unfinished Canadian co-production of The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.

Speaking Monday to the BBC, a spokesperson for Law confirmed the three actors would assume Ledger's role in the film, which is slated for a 2009 release.

Production on the $30-million Doctor Parnassus was halted after the 28-year-old Ledger died in New York from an accidental overdose of prescription drugs on Jan. 22. Ledger had already completed the first leg of filming in London and was expected to resume work on his final scenes in Vancouver this month.
