Heath Ledger's fans call for retirement of Joker from future Batman movies
Heath Ledger's fans have made a motion for The Joker to be retired from all future Batman movies as a mark of respect to the star.
Ledger, who died from an accidental drug overdose in January 2008, was posthumously nominated for an Oscar for his portrayal of the comic book villain in The Dark Knight.
His fans insist that no one else can ever play The Joker better, and have invited other fans to visit website "TheUltimateJoker.com'' and to add their names to a petition calling for movie studios to remove The Joker from future Batman movies.
The online petition was launched last week and it already has about 2,500 names on its list.

I absolutely agree that no one can match the performance he gave. He did a tremendous job. After seeing that, I don't think anyone else can do the Joker any justice. If they got someone else to play the part in the future, people would have very high expectations. Even a future great performance of Joker would disappoint viewers because the bar has been set so high by Heath Ledger.
