Andrew Garfield says Heath Ledger knew The Dark Knight would be a hit: 'He was so smug about it'

Andrew Garfield says Heath Ledger knew 'The Dark Knight' would be a success, long before it arrived in theaters: 'He was so smug about it.'

Garfield was early into his career when he crossed paths with Ledger, who had already earned acclaim for 10 Things I Hate About You, A Knight’s Tale, and Brokeback Mountain. “And I was like, ‘Are you kidding me, dude that looks f---ing incredible.’ And he was like, ‘Nah, the pose is all wrong, it looks kinda like a conventional version of what an actor ... you’ll see.’ And yeah, I did see.” Ledger earned numerous posthumous accolades, including the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
