Though it thankfully happens rarely, sometimes the cinema's most beloved actors hit some unfortunate luck and are taken too soon.
Heath Ledger was the most recent star who passed away before fulfilling his prime. He was unavailable to witness one of his greatest performances, the Joker in The Dark Knight.
Kindly take a moment and pay respects to ten stars who died before their big movies were released in theaters.
Please leave anyone overlooked in the comments.
