We all know that Heath Ledger didn't get to finish his last film, The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus, so Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell stepped into a rewrite to complete the movie and let Heath's last work be shown. I thought that was pretty cool of them, but, it turns out the three Hollywood dads are even cooler than that. Depp, Law and Farrell have donated their pay from the film to Matilda Ledger. Their entire paychecks, all three of them. And that's good people doing a good thing and the second post in a row about celebs who aren't pissing me off. That makes three for the day with Ellen and Portia's wedding post and four if you knew how much I was laughing a John Mayer's hissy fit. That's gotta be a DD record.

Hopefully Matilda will spend some of that money on footwear.
i love that idea. it is very refreshing to see these huge rich stars giving their money to something besides themselves. i have always liked, well loved, johnny depp. he seems like a nice person. i am so sick of rich people & this is very heartwarming.
Thats the best thing ive heard comming from hollywood in a long time. Im impressed with depp law and farrell, now theres something i never thought id live long enough to say.
Colin Farrell is no stranger to charity. He just keeps it on the down-low unlike so many other celebs *cough* AJ/Brad *cough*
very commendable....
Thats class!
i'm impressed too but does mathilda need the money because heath's father has ripped her off? like he ripped off his family some years ago by pilfering his fathers money?
I'm with anon 11:14...this is so sweet...nice work, guys!!
What a great thing to do! I have so much respect for Depp, Law and Farrell for doing this! I stand in awe! Seriously!
On the other hand. . .what has become of the money from the estate that Heath Ledger's dad was to manage? I'll bet she won't be seeing any of that.
