After actor Morgan Freeman met with a serious car accident, the grapevine is abuzz with fears of a curse trailing The Dark Knight. Freeman portrays Lucius Fox in the film. The shock was too much for the film buffs to bear, especially after the untimely death of Heath Ledger, who immortalised the Joker in the latest Batman film, in January this year. Experts say it was an accidental prescription overdose that killed Ledger who suffered from chronic insomnia because he was haunted by his work in the film. In fact, Ledger had even admitted in interviews that he had tapped into some very disturbing elements of his psyche to play such an intense role. Eyebrows rose even further when the lead star of The Dark Knight, Christian Bale, who is a very private star, was troubled by an old unresolved family feud taking over the media. His mother and sister made a private altercation public and even filed assault charges.
Many believe that Warner Brothers, who have been infamously trying to profit off the tragedy of Heath Ledger’s demise, is getting its due. Is it really a series of unfortunate events?
